How Volumetric Technology Drives Growth in the Concrete Industry

At Cemen Tech, we’ve developed tools like ACCU-POUR, a suite of solutions designed to empower teams with better project scheduling, tracking, pouring, and reporting capabilities. This focus on productivity tools is a direct response to the industry’s need for greater control and efficiency.

Another major trend is the growing emphasis on green building and sustainability. The construction sector is under increasing pressure to reduce its environmental footprint. This includes minimizing waste, conserving resources, and improving air and water quality. Volumetric concrete mixer technology offers significant environmental advantages over traditional barrel trucks. They:

• Produce only the exact amount of concrete needed, eliminating waste.
• Conserve water, using significantly less for cleaning.
• Have demonstrably lower emissions and CO²

The Future is Now: Opportunities and Innovations

Looking ahead, we anticipate an even greater need for businesses to optimize their operations. Managing time, costs, and labor will be critical for sustained company growth. The key to unlocking these opportunities lies in embracing technology.

Integrating volumetric technology is already proving to be a game-changer. Our customers are experiencing increased productivity, directly translating into time and cost savings. The ability to produce concrete on-site provides greater control and flexibility.

Responding to Industry Needs

The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act is also creating a surge in construction activity, particularly in areas like bridge and road repairs. Volumetric concrete mixers are uniquely positioned to support these projects due to their versatility and efficiency. Contractors benefit from:

• Eliminating wait times for off-site material delivery.
• On-site quality control and immediate adjustments.
• The ability to pour various mix designs from a single unit, including specialized materials.

Sustainability remains a core focus. Our latest innovation, the Cemen Tech CD2, exemplifies this commitment. This next-generation computerized model features a unique split bin for transporting and blending various supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) like fly ash. Utilizing fly ash significantly reduces carbon dioxide emissions, conserves energy, and minimizes landfill waste. Our volumetric concrete mixers inherently support sustainability through lower emissions, reduced material waste, and efficient water usage.

We are also actively investing in the future of the industry by supporting the next generation of skilled workers through partnerships with educational institutions via Cemen Tech University.

Finally, the demand for speed in construction is ever-present. Volumetric concrete mixers eliminate delays associated with traditional methods, providing fresh, high-strength concrete on demand and maximizing uptime.

Addressing Industry Pain Points

We recognize the significant challenges facing the industry, particularly the labor force shortage and rising material costs. Cemen Tech’s volumetric concrete mixers offer solutions by requiring fewer operators and reducing downtime. Additionally, by producing only the necessary amount of concrete, they help contractors stay within budget and manage material costs effectively.

Cemen Tech’s Commitment to Innovation

At Cemen Tech, innovation is in our DNA. We are excited about our latest advancements, particularly the Cemen Tech CD2. This fully automated model with its unique dual bin system offers unparalleled versatility and efficiency. It delivers high-quality concrete that meets stringent project requirements while simplifying maintenance and enhancing operator convenience.

Conclusion

The construction industry is on a trajectory of rapid technological advancement. Cemen Tech is proud to be at the forefront of this revolution, providing innovative mobile concrete mixer solutions that drive company growth and sustainability. By embracing smart technology and focusing on the evolving needs of our customers, we are building a stronger, more efficient, and more sustainable future.
