Concrete production in Syracuse is one of the strategic activities of SICS: Società Italiana Costruzioni Stradali SpA, a company based in Priolo Gargallo that has been active in the building and infrastructure construction sector for over 60 years. The experience gained over time allows the company to supply concrete for civil, industrial, and road construction projects, meeting the operational needs of businesses and organizations in Syracuse and its province, Ragusa and its province, Catania, and Messina. The concrete produced by SICS is designed to ensure reliability, continuity of supply, and consistency with the technical specifications required by various application contexts.
Composition and characteristics of concrete
SICS produces concrete in Syracuse to meet a variety of application needs, from load-bearing structures to construction works. Concrete is obtained by combining a hydraulic binder, cement, with stone elements called aggregates, such as sand, gravel, and crushed stone. Controlled amounts of water are added to these components until a homogeneous mixture is obtained that can be shaped according to project requirements. The correct ratio of cement, aggregates, and water is essential to ensure the material's mechanical performance and durability. This balance allows for the creation of structures capable of withstanding loads and stresses over time, in compliance with current regulations. Concrete production in Syracuse occurs using plants designed to ensure precise dosing and repeatability of the mixes. Each stage of the process is managed according to structured procedures that ensure the finished product's consistent characteristics. SICS's production organization allows it to support construction sites of varying sizes, ensuring supply continuity and compliance with operational schedules.
