Trade Journals for the Concrete Industry

Lafarge North America is one of the largest diversified suppliers of construction materials in the U.S. and Canada. Lafarge produces and sells cement, ready-mixed concrete, gypsum wallboard, aggregates, asphalt, paving and construction, precast solutions and pipe products. Products are used in residential, commercial and public works construction projects across North America.To maintain its economic growth and increase production speeds, the Lafarge Calgary Pipe operation searched for the most cost efficient lifting solution for their operation. André Geurts, operations manager at Lafarge Calgary Pipe, explains why the Shuttlelift SB 70 was chosen, “Simply, it was the only one to fit our needs. We were specifically looking for a straight forward single-beam gantry crane that got the job done for less.”
