Technology and IoT Driving Ready-mix Business Improvements
The concrete industry is undergoing its own technological revolution. To achieve higher-performance concrete, tighter quality controls and the technology required to facilitate such precise QC are becoming more of a necessity for concrete producers to differentiate from competitors.
Perhaps one of the most pressing matters for any concrete producer is controlling the quality of their perishable ready-mix concrete as it’s transported from the plant to the jobsite. It’s a balancing act between minimizing cost—avoiding overdesign with excess cement, reducing rejected loads and tightening truck cycle times—and maximizing the volume of high-quality, consistent concrete.
