Concrete supplier firms up growth with mixer move
A ready-mix concrete supplier says it has solidified growth plans thanks to a seven-figure investment.
Spotmix has bought a volumetric mixer.
Bosses say the equipment – funded by HSBC UK support – will allow the family-run company to expand into new residential construction, commercial building and energy-efficient housing markets.
Designed for the Liverpool-based company by Bay-Lynx Manufacturing, they add the mixer will produce liquid cement-based screed, which is used as a final covering on top of structural floors.
James Hunter, Spotmix head of operations, said: “This investment marks an important milestone as we expand our capabilities and enter new markets.
“The new liquid screed mixer significantly enhances our service offer, allowing us to deliver quality, precision and efficiency for customers in exciting growth sectors.”
Liam Mitchell, HSBC UK relationship manager, added: “It’s fantastic to support Spotmix as the company takes a major step forward in its expansion.
“Investing in specialised equipment will improve operational capacity and open up valuable new growth opportunities.”
