Home » Company Reviews » Frumecar; International market leader in machinery for the concrete industry

Frumecar is a Spanish company that provides its services across the world, they offer manufacturing, transport and digital technology solutions for the concrete industry. The firm’s goal is to provide their customers with comprehensive solutions with a wide range of products and services, including: dry way and wet way concrete batching plants, concrete mixers, concrete recycling systems and our Intelligent Systems business line (a set of state-of-the-art digital tools for plant and fleet management).

For this purpose, they use the most effective manufacturing techniques, the company opts for top-quality materials and they look for suppliers of top international brands for each and every component in their equipment. They are confident in what they do, so all of their concrete batching plants have a 2-year warranty.

In Frumecar they offer concrete producers effective and efficient solutions, seeking maximum productivity and operability. Their aim is to improve performance and ensure the quality and results of each project that we carry out; thanks to the logistical operability and modularity of our plants, we adapt to the different production needs. They design their plants to be powerful and robust, while also being easy to transport and install. This is how we see technology: a way of being able to offer the best product at a reasonable price.

It is currently worth highlighting two noteworthy innovations that are highly useful for their customers:

  • DIY CONCRETE PLANTS – “do it yourself”

“As it is impossible to send their teams to other countries to install plants due to the problems with Covid-19, they have created a production model in which the customers themselves are able to install the plant with their remote supervision, using the latest augmented reality technologies”.

The customer receives the concrete batching plant ready to assemble. “Something unthinkable until now”. This is why Frumecar chooses to “compete by using new technologies and to protect themselves from the risks”.

  • TURNKEY INDUSTRY 4.0

Frumecar operates as a digital transformer for its customers. “We build their plant, we install the management software and, using a set of applications, they can monitor their activity through ‘Frumecar Cloud’ from anywhere in the cloud: they check the location map for all of their concrete mixers, they request work reports, they manage the plant’s maintenance and they receive warning alerts”. Over 500 models of this Frumecar turnkey industry 4.0 solution have been delivered to numerous countries. In extreme situations such as the Covid-19 crisis, efforts towards digitisation make even more sense. “Now it is even more useful than ever to have a system that allows you to have information in real time without having to visit the premises.
