Questions buyers ask
What does a block plant include?
The block machine with your moulds, an aggregate batching and mixing unit, a hydraulic power pack and controls, and usually a pallet/stacking system. Moulds for other block or paver shapes are quoted separately.
Manual, semi-automatic or automatic?
Manual machines are the cheapest and need more labour; automatic lines cost more but cut labour and raise output. We match the level to your target volume and labour cost.
