Allied Concrete Secures Gold Status
Allied Concrete Secures Gold Status Second Year Running in Ready Mixed Concrete Awards.
Allied Concrete’s Penrose and Nelson plants secured Gold status once again at the 2020 Concrete New Zealand (NZ) Plant Audit Scheme ‘Excellence Awards’.
Allied Concrete’s Penrose and Nelson plants secured Gold status once again at the 2020 Concrete New Zealand (NZ) Plant Audit Scheme ‘Excellence Awards’.
The Scheme provides a thorough and objective audit of the quality systems in place at a ready mixed concrete plant to ensure compliance with NZS 3104 Specification for Concrete Production, the main Standard used to specify structural concrete.
The management system of the Scheme conforms with the requirements of ISO 9001 and is independently audited by Bureau Veritas (New Zealand) Limited.
Introduced in 2019, the Plant Audit Scheme ‘Excellence Awards’ uses a Gold, Silver and Bronze ‘Excellence Awards’ system to acknowledge commitment to quality across all aspects of ready mixed concrete production.
To receive an annual ‘Excellence’ certificate a plant must not have received any corrective actions or have its testing requirements questioned under the Scheme.
Plants that have demonstrated 3+ years of continuous ‘Excellence’ are recognised as Bronze, those with 5+ years as Silver, and those with 10+ years as Gold.

Concrete NZ chief executive, Rob Gaimster, applauds Allied Concrete’s Penrose and Nelson plants, as well as the dedication to quality shown by all the plants in the Scheme.
“The vast majority of ready mixed concrete producers in New Zealand choose to be members of the Concrete NZ Readymix Sector Group and use the Scheme to demonstrate that the concrete they produce meets the required industry Standards,” says Rob.
“Purchasers can be confident that ready mixed concrete from a producer audited through the Scheme meets the requirements of NZS 3104. This provides assurance that the concrete will achieve its strength and durability requirements in application.
“Allied Concrete continue to set the bar high in terms of quality assurance at a ready mixed concrete plant, and thoroughly deserve their Gold status.”
