Quality in the Mix

Our precast products are manufactured using a high strength concrete mix design called, Self Consolidating Concrete or SCC.  This mix is designed to give our products superior strength and durability. There are many advantages of using SCC over a conventional mix, including a more homogeneous concrete mix and decreased production time.
