Strauss Groep expanded their operation by acquiring Poort Beton during 1999, and recently relocated its operation from Louisvale to Upington. Since then the company has evolved the original cement brick plant by offering a diverse product range including, a crusher plant, ready mix plants, an aggregate classifier (washing), and the acquisition of a truck mounted concrete pump. The recent establishment of a mass block machine plant ensures uniformity, the highest quality and increased production.
