Fibre-reinforced concrete solutions for agriculture
Reduced construction time, increased durability.
Farm range products are also available using our proprietary FibreCrete®. Heidelberg Materials’ FibreCrete is a premium range of fibre-reinforced concrete products, engineered with advanced fibre technology to boost both performance and durability.
FibreCrete not only enhances durability and efficiency but also has the potential to eliminate the requirement for structural steel mesh reinforcement, streamlining your construction process. Our macro-synthetic fibre-reinforced concrete uses high-strength synthetic fibres, making it ideal for agricultural applications.
Design assumptions: Slab thickness and macro-synthetic fibre reinforcement suitable for documented loadings providing slabs are ground supported on sub-grade to a minimum 5% CBR value.
Our Farm range concretes have been designed with the specific needs of both internal and external agricultural environments in mind. All Farm range concretes are easy to place and compact. Whether you're storing livestock, feed, machinery or harvest, we offer a Farm range concrete that supports the day-to-day demands of your farm.
Benefits include:
Hard-wearing and durable
Helps mitigate cracks. Can be supplied with fibres as an alternative to traditional crack control mesh
Improved chemical (urine) resistance
Complies with industry and British standards (BS EN 1992:3: Eurocode 2) and DEFRA guidelines
Manufactured for strength, durability and hygiene, FarmFloor helps set new standards in livestock management practice. For more aggressive environments, choose FarmFloor Plus.
Engineered to safely manage agricultural liquids, this concrete meets industry and British Standards (BS EN 1992:3: Eurocode 2), and DEFRA guidelines for reinforced liquid-retaining structures. It delivers strength, compliance, and resilience under heavy loads.
A high-strength, durable concrete designed to withstand heavy machinery, low temperatures, and de-icing salts. Its specialist formulation ensures long-lasting performance and excellent slip resistance.
This concrete base safeguards stored crops by preventing ground contamination through exceeding food hygiene standards. It offers a durable, easy-to-clean surface for efficient handling and helps meet Food Safety Act and quality assurance requirements.
Applications: grain and animal stores, crop stores, hay sheds, general agricultural storage, partition walls and silos
SmartRock wireless concrete sensors monitor temperature and strength gain every 15 minutes for up to 60 days, providing real-time data that can help you save time, money and CO2 with no need for test cubes and no waiting for results.
Heidelberg Materials is a member of the Quality Scheme for Ready-mixed Concrete (QSRMC) and all our home use concrete products carry this certification.
From the experts: Concrete for farming
The original specification for the bays was a concrete with reinforcing mesh to provide the structural performance required.
But I have used Heidelberg Materials' FibreCrete on previous projects and know what it can deliver in terms of time and cost savings. With this proven track record it was not difficult to convince the client of its benefits and the results speak for themselves.

Why should I use farming concrete instead of other standard mixes?
The range has been specifically designed for the aggressive environments found on farms and all products are easy to use, durable, hygienic and help mitigate cracks. They also comply with all relevant agricultural standards and, when laid correctly, are highly resistant to abrasion, erosion and chemical attack.
How soon can I use a vehicle after placing my farming concrete?
Please don’t use a vehicle within seven days of placing your farming concrete, as early usage by heavy vehicles can cause cracking. If you do need to use the concrete earlier than this, please contact us and we can design a concrete mix bespoke to your needs.
Does Heidelberg Materials UK’s farm range of concrete comply with DEFRA guidelines on manure storage?
Yes, it complies with DEFRA regulatory position documents and British and European standards EN 206 and BS 8500.
What sub-base do I need for agricultural concrete?
As a general rule, lay a minimum of 50-75mm graded granular fill material. Then, compact, before adding a binding layer of sand. This will form a close knot between the sub-base and the concrete. It’s critical to have a stable sub-base - without one, the final concrete slab may move or crack.
The usual recommendation for farming concrete slab thickness is 150mm. However, this should be increased if there are significant loadings or poor round conditions. The use of macro-synthetic fibres may allow for reduced slab depth.
The need for reinforcement will be project specific. However, we can supply structural macro fibre-reinforced concrete to replace most steel mesh options. With FarmTank, structural reinforcing steel will normally be required in both slabs and walls.
