Despite the economic turmoil that has been troubling the smaller and larger countries of the world alike, there are very few industries that have not suffered a financial backset. While most sectors have been reeling from an economic depression, construction industry has not only managed to keep itself afloat. Just saying that it has managed to keep itself afloat and leaving it at that would be an understatement. In the last few decades we have seen this sector produce some jaw dropping designs and achieve absolutely mind boggling success. The heights that were previously said to be unachievable and the depths that were previously unexplored have been traversed and owned. No obstacles seem too big now and no barrier is too big. The figures that depict profits, turnovers and growth of the industry have been impressive too. It would not be wrong to say that construction industry has literally reached for the skies in the recent past.


Let us take the example of the real estate sector in order to emphasize this point. Everywhere you look around you, development projects are going on. Whether it is a simple two-storeyed ...
... cozy home or towering skyscrapers, buildings are mushrooming anywhere and everywhere. That is only understandable seeing that population is increasing day by day and people’s requirements are getting enhanced and demands are getting multiplied. Whether it is a new house, a public swimming pool, an educational institution for children, a commercial outlet or a beautiful park around the corner of the quaint neighborhood – construction is taking pace everywhere. And there is no way of denying the obvious fact that in modern times construction work requires concrete. Concrete is actually used for strengthening a structure and provide it maximum durability. Of course, the entire project starts from and depends heavily on making a firm base. For this purpose concrete is projected directly into the floor at high velocity which then solidifies into a strong, durable base. This process of projecting or shooting the concrete into the floor is known as shotcreting. And this is where extra ordinary machines like Grout Pumps & Mixers, the Manual Shotcrete & Mortar Sprayers and Off-Road Concrete Mixers have a huge part to play.


The mining and civil engineering industry has various kinds of shotcreting requirements and that is why the Manual Shotcrete & Mortar Sprayers are hugely preferred. Studies have shown that the areas where large scale construction work is in progress, a more efficient and faster method of shotcreting is required. This requirement makes the Robotic Shotcreting Machines indispensible. As these in the process of spraying concrete quickly, it the mining industry they are use to provide temporary support to the walls of the tunnel in order to keep them from caving in. As the name suggests, these machines are controlled by remote from a distance and thus generally do not require another person to be present near the machine. While purchasing these automations, keep in mind that the hose attached to them are sturdy and durable. As these are the things that are dragged on the ground, they must be able to withstand the wear and tear.
