This is a Cemex ready-mix concrete plant where ready-mixed concrete is prepared for use in concreting jobs in the area. The lorries carry their load in ever-rotating drums to prevent the concrete from setting before reaching its destination. These drums have to be well washed after use to prevent build up of concrete residue.
