Trade Journals for the Concrete Industry

Following its incorporation in 1976, RECAFCO (Real Estate Construction & Fabrication Co.) has built over decades an excellent reputation in the Kuwaiti market as a manu- facturer of high-performance precast concrete elements, pipes, prestressed and post-tensioned beams, façade elements, roof units and walls. Recafco is Wiggert's long- est-standing customer in Kuwait: back in the 1970s Kabag (Wiggert) had delivered the first concrete batching & mix- ing plant of the Centromat type featuring a star-shaped aggregate storage facility and a boom scraper. In 2005 this plant was brought up to date with a planetary coun- tercurrent mixer HPGM 1500 and a new electrical control system. Two years later, in 2007, another Centromat plant followed and in 2013 the third concrete batching & mix- ing plant type WiCoMix 2250 with state-of-the-art control technology was delivered to Recafco and commissioned by Wiggert. After many years of successful operation, the two Centromat plants were now replaced by the new twin-mixer plant WiCoMix 2250-2250-6-WCS including a Wiggert WKB flying bucket system. The new plant started concrete production at the beginning of 2024.
