DDS’ new Concrete Pump
DDS Building Supplies has invested in a Concrete Pump to enhance our Volumetric Concrete service – specifically a Cifa PC506D Truck Mounted Concrete Pump.
The technical specifics include:
- 50 cubic metres output per hour with a max output 60bar pressure
- 300 ltr hopper capacity
- Compressor/wash down 500 ltr water system
- Remote control with 20 metre cable
We asked Lisa Baker, Manager of DDS Building Supplies to explain the investment:
- What does the pump do?
The plant pumps concrete from the concrete mixer to the intended location with a distance of up to 100 metres.
- How does it help customers?
Less manpower required, lighter workload and it’s much quicker and efficient alongside keep the customers’ sites cleaner with less mess.
- What kind of projects is it suited to?
All construction concrete pours, sites with restricted access, large quantities, projects working on a time-sensitive programme.
- How does it help DDS Building Supplies?
We can now offer a complete package – concrete and pump – as the sole supplier enabling us to offer a more reactive and robust service. Previously our customers had to either order a pump themselves or we cross hired a pump in on behalf of the customer.
