Winter Aggregate Heating

Pre-heated aggregate delivered hot, no hoarding required.

Overview

Northern Alberta winters normally mean hoarding, ground thaw and lost days. Our heating trailers pre-heat aggregate at the pile and hold temperature in transit, so gravel and sand arrive workable at the plant or the pour.

This keeps winter concrete and base work on schedule: no frozen lumps in the feed, no waiting for a hoard to warm a stockpile, and consistent batch temperatures through the coldest weeks of the season.

What’s included

  • Pre-heated aggregate and sand supply
  • Heated haul to plant or job site
  • Temperature-controlled batch feed for winter concrete
  • Frost-free base placement and compaction
  • Stockpile heating at the pit
  • Delivery temperature logging
