Concrete recovery
An Italian-made recycler washes and separates aggregates from waste concrete. The profile describes reuse in low-strength, non-durable concrete applications.
PIONEER READY MIX
Building with tomorrow in mind.
Responsible materials, resource recovery and research guide our approach to more sustainable concrete.
RESPONSIBILITY IN PRACTICE
Better use of materials.
Better use of resources.
Our approach includes supplementary cementitious materials, concrete recycling, water recovery and research into more durable concrete. The profile sets out a commitment to reduce environmental impacts and improve the way resources are used.
Mixes using slag, fly ash and silica can reduce Portland-cement content where technically appropriate. The environmental outcome depends on the mix and its supporting assessment.
Water reuse
An RGF recycling system is documented at 600 gallons per hour. Recovered water is used for mixer cleaning and washing aggregate at the recycler.
Safer mixer cleaning
READY JET uses high-pressure water to remove hardened concrete from mixer drums, reducing reliance on manual chipping and exposure to silica dust.
Materials research
Research into supplementary cementitious materials, lightweight aggregates and durability informs the development of future concrete solutions.
Progress that can be measured.
The sustainability policy calls for attention to energy, water, waste, emissions and environmental management. Project-specific environmental evidence and current documentation can be requested from the team.
