2016 American Concrete Pumping Association (ACPA) DY Concrete Pumps Inc. Korean Concrete Pump manufacturer changing the industry by providing high quality concrete pumps in North America Established in 1992, DY Concrete Pumps has earned a reputation for quality and competitive pricing with its Ko- rean manufactured pumps. The company’s presence has grown to include Cairo, Georgia and Calgary. Upon reviewing the company’s website, refined man- ufacturing is behind the quality of DY products. Built on a rolling assembly line that streamlines efficiency, the result is described as a “consistent, quality product that doesn’t change with each production” simplifying fleet manage- ment. Common parts that are interchangeable between models also reduces the number of parts end-users will stock to maintain a fleet. President Joe Delehay says the company’s “extremely efficient manufacturing quality control process provides longer lasting equipment” for its clients. “Our equipment offers a lower cost of ownership through great value for our clients but allows them to gen- erate the same revenues as equipment from higher priced competitors.” DY, he says, also offers superior service and technical support. DY has strategically located two facilities, one located in Southern Georgia and the other in Calgary, Alberta. “Each facility is mounting pumps but more importantly, both facilities stock large inventories of spare parts to en- sure prompt (overnight if necessary) deliveries throughout North America.” Delehay says: “Throughout my 35 years of end user ex- perience, I was continually disappointed with late deliver- ies and lack of parts support from this industry, and by using my experience, my team has a better understanding of what expectations are after purchasing a DY pump. We utilize our experience to provide unsurpassed customer satisfaction.” Offering products that are suitable for everything from large commercial, institution and infrastructure to residen- tial home builders, DY offers three distinct product com- ponent advantages that other manufacturers do not, including a continuous swing (360 degree) boom pedestal. DY also offers light weight fuel efficient models such as the 57 meter which is the lightest on the market (91,000lbs) and which allows the pump to be mounted on a five axle chassis where others require six-axle. This in- stantly saves the customer money. “Our 57 meter is also a six-section boom. This allows the pump contractor to reach elevator core formwork two- storeys higher than a five-section boom, providing cus- tomers with more revenue opportunities.” Delehay says DY will also be coming out with a 38 meter five-section boom and a 40-meter boom mounted on a three-axle truck in 2017. DY will once again be dis- playing and showcased all of its models at the 2017 World of Concrete tradeshow in Las Vegas next February. DY is a member of the CPMA (Concrete Pump Manu- facturers Association), complying with manufacturers’ safety standards, set above industry standards, and dedi- cated to the safe manufacturing and operation of concrete pumps in North America. DY is also a supporting member of the” American Con- crete Pump Association.” The ACPA is an association ded- icated to serving members in the concrete pumping industry with the objectives to promote concrete pumping and to educate the concrete pumping industry on safe con- crete pumping procedures.
