De Martin & Gasparini, a subsidiary of Boral, have just plugged into a cleaner future, taking delivery of our first electric trailer pump in March. It’s been undergoing testing and is set to head out to its first project in June and it’s already proving to be a smart investment.
We purchased the pump after securing the $20 million concrete supply, pump and place package with the developer and construction company, Built, for the Chifley Tower project in Sydney’s CBD – a major job involving over 35,000m³ of concrete.
“One of the conditions of winning the contract was offering an electric pump, which helped the client gain an extra point toward their 6 Star Green Star rating,” said Marco Gidaro, GM DMG. “At the time, we didn’t have one but a competitor did. This decision helped us win the work and sets us up for the future.”
The Chifley project had a unique advantage – enough power on-site to run an electric pump, which most projects can’t yet support. But with more clients aiming for greener builds, this move positions us to lead the charge as electric solutions become more common.
Electric trailer pump has begun work on the first major 400m3 slab at Chifley tower today, and is currently pumping over 50m3 an hour from Boral's concrete agitators.
Cleaner. Quieter. Future-ready. We’re on track - and fully charged for what’s next.
