Our General (GEN) concrete mixes have a designed strength with a minimum cement content and are quality assured to meet British/European standards.
GEN mixes are used widely in domestic and commercial projects due to being very versatile.
The most common Gen mixes are GEN1, GEN2 and GEN3.

GEN1 is a versatile readymix concrete with a fixed cement content.
