Precast Concrete

Precast Concrete is an ancient type of construction material made with concrete cast in a reusable mold or "form" which is then cured in a controlled environment, transported to the construction site and lifted into place. In contrast, standard concrete is poured into large forms and cured on site. Precast stone is distinguished from precast concrete by using a fine aggregate in the mixture so the final product approaches the appearance of naturally occurring rock or stone.

The use of precast concrete in construction is now widely regarded as an economic, durable, structurally sound and architecturally versatile form of construction. The benefits of factory-made precast are recognised as making a significant contribution to lean construction.

Jensen Precast is among the largest independently owned precast concrete companies in the United States. They operate twelve facilities, with over 1,000 employees, and more than 120 dedicated delivery vehicles. Precast concrete is their only business, and 40 years of expertise reflects that singular concentration.
