The strengths, which traditionally distinguish Skako concrete mixing plants, are homogeneity, repeatability and perfect accordance.

The Saudi King has approved the building of a whole town, called KAEC, the acronym of King Abdullah Economic City (www.kingabdullaheconomiccity.com). The gigantic project foresees the development of the second largest town in Saudi Arabia within the next ten years. This means that they will need 70 million cubic meters of concrete, exactly the yearly quantity of cement produced in Italy by the existing 2,500 plants during a period of strong building demand.This meant that the plant would guarantee a production not inferior to 270 cubic meters of concrete per hour.

If Fabio Frascari, managing director of Calcestruzzi Corradini, Salvaterra di Casalgrande in Emilia Romagna, Italy is addressed as ‘Mr Corradini’, he will

not protest but will respond rather with a certain amount of pride. “Angelo Corradini was my grandfather, the founder of the company. A number of our customers are completely unaware that my name is actually Frascari – the Corradini name is recognised throughout the industry and stands for values such as quality, reliability and innovation. These are still core values of our company philosophy and are crucial for our success.”

A customized concrete mix factory, in line with a specific production cycle, where top quality mixes are a key factor: in a nutshell, this is the identikit of a Skako concrete production plant installed at Ediltubi headquarters from Trofarello. The result of the company’s skills and attention to even the smallest details.
