Pump Trucks are the fastest and most economical way of floor laying
Screed pump trucks can manufacture and pump high performance floor screed for flooring contractors and builders on construction projects large and small. Due to their high output they are popular on large construction projects, such as commercial buildings and high-rise apartments. For high volume flooring projects it's the most efficient way to work. One crew can deliver tens of thousands of square feet of flooring with one truck in a single day.
Most pump trucks use rotor stators to pump material up to 50 floors high. Viapex supplies rotor stator pumps for many self levelling pump trucks. Popular rotor stator models are the 7515 and the 2L8. Whether you have your own design or you are working with a pump truck made by one of the leading manufacturers. We will likely have the right rotor stator for your needs.
