Kilsaran supplied Ready Mix concrete from its Concrete Products & Aggregates business unit to the Dublin Port Greenway project along the northern perimeter of the Port overlooking the Tolka Estuary. The concrete for the greenway was supplied by our South Bank Road plant, located just 10-15 minutes from site. This proximity reduced transportation emissions and ensured the consistency and quality of the concrete delivered to the greenway.
Tight control of aggregate grading, particle shape, moisture content and cleanliness enhanced the appearance of the concrete finish. Consistent control of input materials, above what is required for conventional ready-mixed concrete, was vital to the achievement of a high-grade concrete appearance. The final result is a strikingly textured finish that elevates the design of the greenway, demonstrating the potential of concrete to combine both durability and functionality with aesthetic appeal.
