🚜 Soil Stabilisation Works Underway at NetPark, Sedgefield 🚜

Ground conditions are being improved on site at NetPark, Sedgefield using our powerful Case Magnum 340 CVX tractor paired with the Stehr SBF 24/5 Soil Stabiliser.

The Stehr SBF series is designed to transform unsuitable ground into a stable, load-bearing platform by mixing soils with binders such as lime or cement. With a working width of approximately 2.4 metres and the ability to work to depths of up to 500-600mm, it delivers efficient and consistent soil improvement across large areas.

Machine Highlights:
💠Case Magnum 340 CVX delivering the power and traction required for demanding stabilisation works.
💠Stehr SBF 24/5 Soil Stabiliser providing high-output soil mixing and ground improvement.
💠Creates a stronger, more durable formation layer.
💠Reduces the need for imported aggregates, helping lower costs and environmental impact.
💠Ideal for infrastructure, industrial, commercial and development projects.

By stabilising material already on site, we're creating a robust foundation ready for the next phase of construction while improving efficiency and sustainability.

📍 Project: NetPark, Sedgefield
🚧 Operation: Soil Stabilisation & Ground Improvement

👷‍♂️🏗️ Following on from our last update on our Newcastle project, another key milestone has now been completed with the concrete slab successfully poured.

With access and working space extremely limited within the existing courtyard area, careful planning and coordination were essential throughout the pour. To overcome the restricted access, a concrete pump was utilised to safely and efficiently place the slab within the confined working environment.
The transformation of the space is now becoming really visible, with the structural steel frame and finished slab giving a clear view of the footprint of the new enclosed extension.

A huge thank you to everyone involved for the continued hard work, teamwork, and commitment to maintaining safe operations while delivering progress in a very tight and challenging location.

Looking forward to sharing the next stages as the project continues to take shape.

Last week, our team had the fantastic opportunity to visit the Tobermore factory in Northern Ireland for an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour.

Tobermore are industry leaders in the design and manufacture of premium paving and walling products, supplying both commercial and residential projects across the UK and Ireland. It was incredibly insightful to see firsthand the innovation, precision, and craftsmanship that goes into creating their high-quality materials.

From exploring the production process to learning more about their commitment to sustainability and product excellence, the visit gave us a deeper appreciation for the work that goes into every project we’re part of.

A big thank you to Shaun Heatherington & the Tobermore team for hosting us - it’s great to already be working together, and we’re excited to continue building on our partnership.
