Heidelberg Easyflow 😂


So after Cemex failed to add micro fibres to our last batch of self compacting concrete and their subsequent lack of interest in sending out a tech chap to look at the plastic shrinkage or help remediate their error, i decided to take my custom elsewhere.  Heidelberg and their ‘Easyflow SCC’ to be precise.  
 

I stood momentarily in shock, ignorantly thinking.  “Maybe it’s magic stuff and it will suddenly turn into the porridge consistency it should be”.  Hence to say.  Said magic never happened 😂

 

The driver said he spoke to the batching plant and it was mixed with a stiff slump as it was for a ramp.  Made me chuckle though as there is a clue in the name ‘Easyflow’

Looks good for haunching up kerbs etc.  Tossers.

So where does that leave you? What's the fix/work-round for the Cemex stuff, and what are you going to use instead of the lump of 'clod'?

 

If all orders are detailed, in writing, then wriggling out would arguably be difficult. OTOH total inactivity/failure to engage works for recalcitrant contractors all the time.

 

Also, it just occurs to me that any 'obvious' description, especially in a product name, probably has to be queried. You said '...there is a clue in the name 'Easyflow', but maybe there simply isn't! 'Oh, we call it that, Sir, but it's stiff - and does not flow easily - when we think it should be.'. I am not sure I'd have queried that either, but it's a Life Lesson...

 

Keep us posted on the next steps and, I sincerely hope, the success thereof.

Did they take it back at their cost?

Do you have holcim round there? We have a local quite advanced batching plant. Local businessman set it up and they bought him out. They do it too. Even some of the volumetric boys are doing it round here now but I'd be a bit wary of them.
