What it doesCloudBox hardware on ready-mix trucks streams delivery data to the CUBE platform, which monitors each load from batching to pour, with APIs for existing systems. Vendor says it gives producers data to answer quality disputes, reduces batching deviation, and spots customers who want higher-grade concrete; it claims customers have saved up to 95% of concrete wastage (vendor claim, not verified). Site title calls it AI-powered. The CSV records an investment from Holcim.Smart concrete testing products: SmartMix (AI-powered mix optimization integrating dispatch and telematics data), MixPilot (in-truck, calibration-less monitoring of slump, temperature and volume from plant to pour), SmartRock wireless temperature and strength sensors (including SmartRock Long Range at up to 1,000 ft and SmartRock Pro, described as the first fully self-calibrating strength sensor), and NDT and lab equipment for corrosion rate, electrical resistivity and chloride penetration. The CSV records a C$17.5M Strategic Innovation Fund commitment for AI and sensor R&D.
