Our Leeds Readymix Plant has successfully completed a major upgrade marking a significant step forward in our commitment to operational excellence and investment in key UK markets.

At the heart of the project was the replacement of the existing 3.0m³ pan mixer with a cutting-edge 4.0m³ planetary mixer. This enhancement has more than doubled the plant’s output capacity, from 55m³ to over 110m³ per hour, positioning the site to better serve the growing construction needs across West Yorkshire.

What’s new at Leeds?

• A brand-new batch cabin and elevated platform for improved control and safer, more comfortable working conditions.
• Structural upgrades including new steelwork, flooring, and access walkways.
• Installation of a high-efficiency Haarup 4m³ mixer with dual discharge gates and high-speed funnel discharge.
• Upgraded Cement weigh hoppers and admixture systems to support higher throughput.
• A new high-pressure wash system and improved dust filtration for cleaner, more sustainable operations.

“This upgrade not only boosts our production capabilities but also reinforces our commitment to sustainability and market leadership in the region. Key to the project’s safe delivery was the close collaboration between the main contractor D&C Engineering, Al Reaney, Cemex Engineering and Andy Ralph, local operations department,” said Alan Caird, Senior Project Manager.
