Cemen Tech Inc. has acquired Contech Testing & Consultancy Ltd., a move that expands the Indianola-based manufacturing company’s European operations. Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed. Located in Wolverhampton, England, Contech provides a range of services related to concrete including mix design, testing and production quality control. The transaction allows Cemen Tech to expand its support for companies in the United Kingdom operating volumetric concrete mixers and doing masonry block production, Cemen Tech leaders said in a news release. Contech will continue to operate under its current name as a division of Volumech, Cemen Tech’s existing U.K. operation. With Contech’s office in Wolverhampton, Cemen Tech now has three locations across the U.K. that deal in Cemen Tech concrete mixers, parts, refurbishments and service, its proprietary fleet management software, and now concrete mix design and testing. Cemen Tech’s volumetric cement mixers are now used in 70 countries. The company was named Manufacturing Technology Company of the Year by the Technology Association of Iowa in its 2020 Prometheus Awards.
