Dricon® first introduced premixed bagged concrete because we saw how much time and effort it took tradies to buy, mix and place the stuff back then. It was an instant hit.

Originating in Tuakau in 1965, before joining the Fletcher Building group in 1990, and now offers a comprehensive range of trusted, premix concretes, mortars, dried and wet sands, and aggregates.

Dricon® products are scientifically blended and manufactured using the latest automated and robotic industry technology and raw materials. An automated recipe system, using the latest EMC weigh feeders delivers a measured flow of materials which are blended in a continuous auger, ensuring highly accurate product consistency.  Dricon has ISO accreditation since 1994 (AS/NZS ISO 9001:2008) and all our products are routinely tested both internally and externally meeting all AS/NZ standards where applicable.

Environmental Care

As the leading brand in New Zealand’s pre-bagged concrete and mortars industry, Dricon® is committed to making a positive contribution to sustainability. Concrete is a versatile and durable building material comprised of mainly natural ingredients.

Cured Dricon® won’t rust or rot resulting in a long product life cycle. It has inherent fire resistance, and its extremely robust nature means only minimal maintenance is needed, saving both energy and resources.

Dricon® pre-packaged products eliminate the waste generated from traditional onsite mixing, since all the necessary materials are provided pre-mixed and ready for application in one easy to use, unbleached paper bag. Left-over Dricon® is contained in bags making it easy to transport to new jobs again eliminating a potential environmental burden.
