Kilcarrig Quarries Ltd. produces a wide range of high-quality concrete strength classes to meet your specification requirements. Kilcarrig Quarries batching plant uses the latest Alkon Batching Software to accurately weigh and batch our mix-design concrete.

Ready Mix Concrete

We supply the Residential, Commercial, and Agriculture sectors with a variety of ready-mix concrete produced from our quarry products.

Standard mixes are available in the strength classes listed in Table 1. All mixes can be supplied with 20mm or 10mm aggregate. We are capable of producing large volumes for large industrial infrastructure pours while also catering for smaller volumes.

Kilcarrig Quarries produce a cementitious-based Pumpable Liquid Floor Screed for the Underfloor Heating market. This Screed is made from a prescribed blend of washed sand, cement, specialist admixtures and fibre reinforcement. The advantage of our Floor Screeds over a Traditional Concrete Screed is that the placement method is quicker and can be placed in finished structures the same as a Hemihydrate Screed. However, unlike Hemihydrate Screed which can be problematic if exposed to water after placement, our cement-based Screeds are not affected in the same way when fully cured. This Screed combines the ease of placement of a liquid screed with the durability of cementitious-based materials. This Screed is placed by an experienced specialist contractor to ensure a quality and consistent finish. A typical Two-Storey Dwelling can be placed in a number of hours.

CBGM

Kilcarrig Quarries supplies Cement Bound Granular Material

CBGM can be used on anything from country roads, airfields, ports, harbours, and motorways. In most environments, it is used to form the foundation or base of a pavement. It is often overlaid by a flexible pavement (known as composite) or it can be block paved (as seen at some ports/harbours).CBGM (cement-bound granular material) is a cost-effective way to build a heavy-duty, durable pavement

A full range of standard and specialist admixtures are available when required/specified for our concrete. These range from water-reducing agents, retarders, HRWA, accelerators to plasticizers, shrinkage-reducing, waterproofing, and also air-entrainment. These provide a number of beneficial effects when used alone or in combination to enhance the properties of the concrete eg. increasing workability, strength, durability or open time. Fibre reinforcement is also available which ranges from basic plastic shrinkage crack control to structural requirements.

All concrete is delivered by our company-owned fleet of trucks which consist of standard rigid truck mixers. We also have specialist trucks which facilitate the placing of concrete using remote control telescopic chutes or conveyor belt for elevated pours.
