In an entirely different role DUO Processing have also been busy providing their services to CEMEX quarries at Shap. Having enjoyed a six year working relationship as a supplier to CEMEX, Powerscreen Washing Systems Ltd introduced Hydrex to provide the customer with a complete one stop package under the DUO brand.

Complementing a Kleeman 122 Primary Duel Crusher and Warrior Screening equipment Hydrex have supplied a Hitachi 350 excavator, a Bell 40 tonne dump truck, and a Volvo L120 and L150 loading shovel.

DUO currently process 450,000 tonnes of blue granite per annum which is supplied to a secondary CEMEX operation for final grading and supply as rail ballast.

Dave Warwick, DUO Processing Contracts Manager responsible for the SHAP project comments:
"The figures speak for themselves. The demand for rail ballast with over a million tonnes of waste ballast being removed from trackside each year necessitates an ongoing requirement for new ballast."

Hydrex Warrington depot provides local facilities for service and maintenance.
