Every road project has its own challenges, but for small contractors, these challenges often feel even bigger. In Mexico, one of our clients faced difficulties while building and maintaining internal roads. He needed a solution that was not only cost-efficient but also flexible enough to move from site to site. After considering his options, he chose the AIMIX ALB-20 Portable Asphalt Mixer. We will show how the decision transformed his projects, reduced costs, and improved efficiency.
Through his experience, the contractor identified several main points that slowed down his projects:
He realized he needed more control over asphalt production. Relying on external suppliers was no longer sustainable for his business model.
After researching options and consulting with AIMIX, the contractor decided on the ALB-20 mobile asphalt mixer machine. The reasons were clear:
These advantages convinced him that the ALB-20 asphalt mixing machine was the right choice for his business. As he explained: “I wanted a machine that worked for me, not against me. The ALB-20 gave me control and flexibility.”
The first project where he used the ALB-20 mobile asphalt mixing machine was the construction of an internal road in a housing community. The road was around 1.5 kilometers long, requiring consistent asphalt supply for smooth paving.
With the ALB-20, he set up the machine directly near the project site. Production started within hours, and asphalt was delivered hot and fresh to the pavers. Each cycle took only 10–15 minutes, producing 3 tons of asphalt from the dual drums. Workers were able to maintain a steady pace, and the road was completed ahead of schedule.
Compared to his past projects, he saved on transport costs, reduced delays, and ensured better asphalt quality. The community praised the final result, and he gained a reputation for efficiency and professionalism.
“Before using the ALB-20, I had no choice but to depend on large plants. Many times, I wasted hours waiting for delivery, and the asphalt would arrive too cold. With AIMIX’s ALB-20, I produce asphalt on-site, just when I need it. It saves me money, time, and a lot of stress. For small contractors like me, this is the smartest investment I have made.”
Encouraged by the first project’s success, the contractor began using the ALB-20 mini asphalt mixer machine for other applications:
Each project further demonstrated the machine’s value. He took control of his own production instead of relying on suppliers.
