Portland Hollowcore was opened in 2008, after the installation of the state-of-the-art Elematic systems, imported from Finland. The company’s own aggregates and ready mix products are used for the production of the hollow core slabs and all products are backed by tight quality control, which brings a
guarantee of strength and workability on the construction site. Portland’s main operations only happen on one premises, making it easier for employees to communicate and manage their tasks, ensuring the effective integration of the divisions.
