Bescrete
Bescrete Bescrete Blocks are cast in steel moulds onto steel pallets, compacted by vibration and then steam cured. At Besblock Ltd., we use the very highest precision machinery available in this field. This incorporates a uncontrolled vibration system which ensures a uniform density throughout the mould, giving a consistent test quality on every block. As a result, the high strengths attained in both the Bescrete Cellular and Hollow blocks are unmatched by most of our competitors - view »
