These are known as sinker blocks and are used to weigh down buoys in a harbour. We can manufacture these in many different sizes from these relatively small ones up to blocks weighing several tonnes in weight to anchor down the largest of buoys. We can even produce them using ultra low carbon cement free concrete to reduce your environmental footprint.
Stopping production is something we don’t do lightly, but that’s exactly what we do several times a year to focus on health and safety.
Demand from our customers to reduce the carbon footprint continues at a pace and our business has responded to the challenge.
The use of precast concrete has revolutionised the way construction projects are delivered. As the construction industry continually seeks ways to improve speed, cost efficiency and reduce wastage, precast concrete emerges as a compelling solution.
We provided over 1,000 individually reinforced low-carbon precast concrete steps which were manufactured in steel moulds. The units were made using approximately 235m3 of Cemfree Rapid from DB Group Ltd, an alkali-activated cementitious material (AACM) which has 85% lower embodied carbon than 100% OPC (Ordinary Portland Cement) concrete.
