Lets dive in.

 

Convenience Through Customisation

At the heart of our decision to bring a fibo Collect machine to Lochgelly, Fife, is the customisable experience it offers. Whether you need a specific mix design, a tailored volume, or a unique collection time, the platform gives you full control. “Time is money” and we don’t take that saying lightly. fibo Collect boasts outstanding lead times – from placing your order to collecting your mix in a matter of minutes not hours.

Your timeline is tight, and precision is non-negotiable. fibo Collect empowers you with the perfect blend of efficiency and quality. With our service, you could simply call in for paving slabs and Type 1, while effortlessly collecting a mix of bedding mortar on the same trip.

Landscapers thrive on uniformity in materials. Our consistent mix design ensure that the quality of your bedding mortar is never a guessing game. No more faffing with a mixer on site. 

Brick Layers: Mortar Mix

For the bricklayer, timing is everything. What if getting your mortar to site was as straightforward as adding tubs to a delivery of bricks? fibo Collect makes this a reality. Our service is a bricklayer’s dream, simplifying the process with the ability to add 1 day, 2 day or 3 day mortar onto a delivery or just calling into collect on your way to the job. 

Groundworker: C10 Utility Trench Fill 

Groundworkers often need to fill utility trenches after pipe or cable installation, restoring the ground’s integrity and preventing collapses.The nature of this work is in and out with lots of travel between jobs. By positioning the machine strategically at our Lochgelly branch we can now offer the unparalleled convenience of being able to collect and go without any logistical juggle.

DIY’er: C20 for Shed Base

Let’s look at this from the perspective of the budding DIYer and assume your planning to put up a 3m x 2.4m shed and you need to lay a foundation. Typically, a concrete foundation for a shed might be around 100mm (0.1m) to 150mm (0.15m) deep. Let’s assume you’re going for a 100mm depth for your foundation. The volume of concrete needed can be calculated using the formula Volume = Length × Width × Depth so its 3m × 2.4m × 0.1m = 0.72 cubic meters. Thats a 10 minute job for the fibo Collect and may be collected in two trips depending on your vehicle. Just ask a member of the team for advice.
