About maxit UK

Welcome to maxit UK The maxit Group manufactures mineral-based materials for both buildings and other civil engineering projects through operations concentrated in Europe and in China. Specialising in the production of expanded clay aggregates, blocks and all types of wall renders, plasters and floor screeds, it is part of one of Europe's largest building materials companies. Since the maxit brand replaced the Optiroc name in 2004 it has enabled us to develop our existing portfolio of market-leading products through the introduction into the UK of a yet broader range of products that have been proven throughout Europe, under a consistent identity. You will find evidence of this already on this site, where you will find details of the revolutionary new airfresh plaster - the first in the world to eliminate odours and volatile organic compounds from the air - and the innovative Alpha Hemi-Hydrate floor screed - a smooth flowing, thick screed that goes down fast and can be walked on in only 16 hours. In the UK, maxit leads the field in quality, technical ability and service in two main product areas: Lightweight Aggregate (LWA) and Premix products. maxit LWA is expanded clay aggregate that has a broad variety of applications, from blockmaking, insulation and concrete production to geotechnical, water filtration and horticultural uses. maxit's Premix range leads the world in the production of pumpable cementitious self-levelling floor screeds and high-quality wall renders. Such global success has been won through over a century of experience, intensive research and a strong understanding of what our customers require. We have tried to make this site as simple to navigate and as informative as possible. Please browse through it, using the main index at the top and sub menus on the left hand side. Then bookmark the site and come back regularly, as we have ambitious plans for expansion within the UK and Europe and there will always be something new to see. If you have any queries with regard to our products then feel free to contact me or one of my colleagues at our UK head office in Runcorn, either by calling 01928 515656 or by e-mail from our contact area.
