Contractors And On-Site Block Production
Construction companies that would rather make blocks on site than wait for a delivery that may not match the drawing.
Where It Goes Wrong
- Block deliveries that arrive late and hold up the wall crew
- Only one block size available locally, whatever the drawing calls for
- Remote sites where freight is a large part of the block cost
- No qualified machine engineer within reach of the site
What Buyers Ask For
- A machine that runs as soon as it is connected to power
- A small crew requirement, because site labour is already committed
- Moulds for the sizes the project actually uses
- A machine light enough to move between sites
