Concrete

CONCRETE

The use of Concrete dates back as early as 500 BC and is said to be the second most used material in the world today. Its use is deeply rooted in our history of building things. For us, it started when we invented the first completely automated Concrete plant for Rexnord in 1955.

For more than six decades, we have been on job sites and partnering with our customers to meet the demands of an ever-changing Construction Materials Industry.
