The Cost Benefits of Using Ready-Mix Concrete

Jan 25, 2024

Ready-mix concrete is a popular paving solution for industrial and commercial applications because of its low life cycle cost and high light reflectivity.

Durability & Minimal Maintenance

Ready-mix concrete’s reliable strength and durability are capable of withstanding decades of inclement weather and heavy use with minimal maintenance. With proper installation and care, ready-mix concrete can remain in serviceable condition for 30 years or more. Concrete’s inherent fire resistance also improves a structure’s insurance rates.

Light Reflectivity

Concrete is often specified for its light reflectivity. Ready-mix concrete’s high light reflection value improves nighttime visibility, increasing safety. It also reduces the number of light poles needed to adequately illuminate property, contributing to significant energy and cost savings over time. Concrete parking lots require significantly less lighting than alternative materials like asphalt.
