Sale of the First Ciber iNOVA 2000 Asphalt Mixing Plant to Europe

The trailer-mounted continuous asphalt mixing plant from Ciber produces asphalt mix with outstanding quality and low operating costs.

Demand for the Ciber iNOVA 2000 is already high in Australia and New Zealand, having already established itself as market leader in Latin America and Africa. Ciber, a member company of the Wirtgen Group from Brazil, has taken an important step towards becoming an established brand in the European market with the sale of a plant to the United Kingdom.

The trailer-mounted continuous asphalt mixing plant, which enables flexible, effective and sustainable realization of construction projects, has been sold to the British company B.P. Mitchell Ltd. The successful deal is the result of close international collaboration between the Wirtgen Group UK subsidiary, Wirtgen Limited, Benninghoven, and Ciber.

Years of Excellent Experience with the Wirtgen Group

B.P. Mitchell, from Welwyn Garden City near London, a supplier of building materials to the construction industry for over 25 years, is also a specialist in the production of high-quality recycled aggregates.B.P. Mitchell has worked closely with Wirtgen for a number of years and has successfully operated a range of Kleemann crushing and screening equipment. For B.P. Mitchell, the purchase of the asphalt mixing plant from Ciber is the first step in the development of new capabilities for the realization of future projects in the road construction industry.

Flexibility, Despite a Permanent Location

In the UK, most mobile asphalt mixing plants are operated from permanent locations, as is the case with the iNOVA 2000 plant supplied to B.P. Mitchell. This is mainly due to construction projects being predominantly small to medium scale, requiring a local supply of asphalt mix, for example for construction work on airports, roads in new residential areas, or the rehabilitation of sections of major highways and freeways. The mobile concept was nevertheless an important factor in the customer’s plans. Although the largest proportion of asphalt required for road construction projects is supplied by cement works and quarries with stationary asphalt mixing plants, the plant's mobility and flexibility offers competitive advantages, especially in the case of temporary projects.

Brendan Mitchell is establishing his company as a dependable supplier that can deliver high-quality material quickly and directly with his new Ciber iNOVA 2000 plant.

iNOVA Fulfills Important Sustainability Criteria

The iNOVA 2000 plant enables sustainable and ecologically compatible asphalt production and simultaneously reduces CO₂ emissions. Thanks to the use of reclaimed asphalt pavement material (RAP), the plant fulfills the sustainability requirements in the UK through its lower transport costs, reduced fuel consumption, and environmentally friendly combustion process.

Future Investment Plans: B.P. Mitchell is already planning further investments in the expansion of the plant with storage silos for hot asphalt mixes and aggregates.
