Precast concrete products
Precast concrete is the most commonly used building material in the world. We offer a wide variety of products, including flooring beams and slabs, walls, panels, balconies, staircases and more.
What is precast concrete?
Precast concrete is a construction product produced by casting wet concrete in a reusable mould or “form” which is then cured in a controlled environment, transported to site, and installed in place.
In contrast, traditional methods of in situ applications are poured into site-specific forms and cured on site. This traditional method of production promotes a range of issues related to both quality control and safety.
Manufacturing in our carefully controlled factory facilities in Essex ensures Milbank precast concrete is not affected by variable site conditions or the elements, making us the intelligent choice for leading construction firms and self-builders across the UK.
