CPI Euromix offers students insight into silo benefits
CPI EuroMix delivered a CPD presentation for students on the benefits of silo mortar as part of its long-established community support programme.
Steve Howell, Area Sales Manager, took time out from his busy schedule to provide the instructional sessions at Hopwood Hall College and University Centre in Middleton, Manchester.
He gave two presentations – one in the morning, one in the afternoon – which were attended by 25 students in total. Hopwood Hall College offers learning and apprenticeship opportunities for a range of industries; an ideal route for young adults at the beginning of their career path.
Steve Howell said: “It was a privilege to meet the students and present the CPD, which was very much appreciated by them. CPI Euromix has long involved itself with many deserving community causes. Hopwood Hall College is one such cause. It provides high-level theoretical and practical training for students, whose skills our future built environment will depend upon.
Sam McCall, Brickwork Technician at Hopwood Hall College commented, “Having CPI Euromix visit our college was an enlightening experience for all our learners. Their presentation was not only informative but also engaging, providing valuable insights into the world of construction and mortar technology. The representatives were knowledgeable and approachable, encouraging students to ask questions and delve deeper into the subject matter. The session sparked curiosity among our learners, inspiring them to explore career opportunities in the field. We highly recommend CPI Euromix for their expertise and dedication to educating the next generation of professionals in the construction industry”.
Steve’s presentation highlighted how building projects benefit from mortar being delivered readymade to site in silos. Each CPI EuroMix silo stores up to 33-tonne of its high-quality mortar, enabling users to access the material only when it is required. This capability is cost-effective and sustainable, as it results in less waste. Employing the silo storage method, as opposed to using a mixer to manufacture the material on-the-spot, also improves the mortar’s colour and strength consistency. This reduces instances of cracking, shrinkage and pigmentation issues once the mortar is in-situ.
Steve Howell continued: “I’d like to thank the college for hosting us, and the students for their attendance and expert listening skills. It was an enlightening day for all concerned.”
