CEMEX’s MicroTech was the perfect choice to replace SUEZ’s transfer station bays, where the harsh conditions of multiple truck movements and on-site shovel impacts required a high-performance concrete.

We had a video crew to film the whole supply process – you can watch our CEMEX team at work, supplying and pouring the 300m³ of MicroTech 50 to SUEZ. Watch it here: https://youtu.be/cJaCzKNXPq0

MicroTech is CEMEX’s range of advanced concretes, carefully formulated with microsilica and the latest admixture technology to produce high-performance concretes with exceptional levels of durability in the harshest of environments.

SUEZ, a major player in environmental services, needed to replace their recycling bays at one of their Transfer Stations in Bayley Street, Manchester. The bays are used for retaining heavy recycling materials and it is necessary they withstand multiple truck movements and on-site shovel impacts when moving materials around. To ensure a long yard life, contractor TR Civil Engineering needed a solution that was durable and resistant to continuous impact and CEMEX’s MicroTech 50, supplied from our Gorton Concrete plant in Manchester, offered all the properties they required.
