Improving efficiency and reducing labor expenses are major priorities in modern construction. Advanced Construction productivity equipment helps contractors complete masonry projects faster, optimize workforce utilization, and improve overall job site performance.

The Blastcrete MasonMate is an innovative system designed to help contractors Reduce block fill labor costs while increasing productivity in high rise and commercial masonry applications. This complete grout mixing and pumping solution combines a hydraulic squeeze pump, continuous mixer, and bulk bag lifting system to simplify CMU block filling operations.

Boost Efficiency with Construction Productivity Equipment

The Blastcrete MasonMate is engineered as a labor-saving technology that replaces traditional manual grout handling methods. By combining material lifting, mixing, and pumping into one machine, contractors can improve workflow and reduce time-consuming manual tasks.

The MasonMate includes:

D3522 2-inch hydraulic squeeze pump
High shear continuous mixer
1,000 lb. capacity bulk bag lifter
35 HP Briggs and Stratton gasoline engine

This integrated design provides a complete solution for contractors looking to improve productivity on demanding construction sites.

Reduce Block Fill Labor Costs with the Blastcrete MasonMate

Traditional CMU block filling often requires multiple workers to manually transport and place grout materials. The Blastcrete MasonMate helps eliminate CMU block fill bucket brigades by providing a continuous pumping system.

The MasonMate helps contractors:

Reduce on-the-job labor by up to 75%
Increase grout placement speed
Improve material handling efficiency
Reduce physical labor requirements
Minimize construction delays
Maximize project profitability

By streamlining the block filling process, this equipment allows crews to complete more work with improved efficiency.

Designed for High Rise and Commercial Construction

The Blastcrete MasonMate is built for challenging construction environments where space and productivity are critical factors.

The unit is designed to:

Fit inside a freight elevator
Operate within an 8 ft. ceiling
Move with a pallet jack
Be positioned using a telescoping forklift or crane

This compact design makes it ideal for high rise buildings, commercial developments, and large masonry projects.

Powerful Grout Mixing and Pumping System

The MasonMate combines a hydraulic squeeze pump with a high shear continuous mixer to provide reliable grout preparation and placement.

The system delivers:

400 PSI pumping pressure
