Our Ready Mixed Concrete

If the construction industry has a public face, it’s the familiar ready mixed concrete truck with the revolving drum – a daily fixture in traffic and on construction sites.  Heidelberg Materials is among the top ready mixed concrete suppliers in North America. 

High visibility of these trucks stems from the near universal use of the product it delivers. Easily the world’s most widely used construction material, concrete is part of everything we build. And nearly three-quarters of it comes in the form of ready mixed concrete. 

The process begins at the ready mixed concrete plant, where the raw ingredients are loaded into the truck-mounted drum. Once loaded, the concrete ingredients can be mixed immediately by rotating the drum or mixed on the way to the construction site. Ready mixed concrete is more of a delivery system than a type of concrete. Like all concrete, it has three basic components: cement, water, and aggregates – the stone, sand, and gravel that bind together.
