When planning any construction project, whether its a small shed base or a large commercial development, one of the key materials that you’ll need will be concrete. But not all concrete is the same. One of the most popular and widely used options in the UK is ready-mix concrete. In this article, we’ll explain what ready mix-concrete is, why it’s used and the many benefits it offers for both domestic and commercial construction.
What is Ready-Mix Concrete?
RMC as it is often referred to is a type of concrete that is manufactured in a batching plant and delivered to the job site in a ready to use state. The mix is made using precise proportions of cement, aggregates (sand and gravel), water and then any required additives specific to the mix design. This is all done under
controlled conditions to ensure consistency, quality and strength.
At Eazylay Concrete, our ready-mix concrete is produced to meet the exact needs of each customer.
Whether you need a standard mix for a driveway or a specialist design for industrial flooring, we can deliver the perfect mix straight to your site.
Why is RMC Used?
There are many reasons why ready-mix concrete is the go to choice for modern construction projects:
- Time Saving – Because the concrete is mixed and prepared off-site, there is no need for on-site
batching or mixing. This means less time spent preparing materials and more time focused on getting there
job done. - Consistent Quality. – Ready-mix concrete is produced under strict quality control measures. This
ensures a consistent mix every time, reducing the risk of weak spots, cracks or structural issues down the
