How To Use Quarry Dust & 6-10mm Ballast To Make Concrete Blocks

Here we would like to introduce one of our clients in Nairobi, Kenya, who had been in the stone quarry, Thika stone cutting & ready-mix concrete business for years & one problem he facing is there are thousand tons of quarry dust & 6-10mm ballasts stocking in the quarry yard. 

While in the other way, the brick-making machine business is booming in the Kenya market, especially the paving block/cabro business, which needs a lot of quarry dust and 6-10mm ballast for daily production. After three years of study & site visiting, he realized that using the “useless” quarry dust & 6-10mm ballast to make concrete blocks would be a perfect solution to increase the value & earn more profit. 

QGM QT10 brick machine maker is one of the best sellers of brick machines in Kenya, especially the advanced SIEMENS frequency vibration technology, which can increase the compaction force & get better block quality. Daily production is about 800 sqm of cabro/paving blocks per 8 hours. More importantly, it can consume about 30-40t of quarry dust & 50-60t of 6-10mm ballast, turning the useless waste into the valued product.
