The Ontario portion of the Timiskaming Dam Complex, located 65 kilometres northeast of North Bay, Ontario, was more than a 100 old and needed to be replaced.
Custom Concrete Northern has been commissioning and operating portable concrete batch plants since 1976, and has repeatedly shown our high level of expertise with the success of each project. As years progressed the remote projects we have worked on have been improved accordingly to reflect engineering advancements, tighter tolerances and drastic changes in environmental/safety regulations. Custom Concrete has not only kept up with the changes in portable on-site operation requirements but has supported them along the way as these changes only improve the quality of service, product and treatment of our employees.
