Modern Concrete Pumping, Inc.,
currently has a fleet of 18 pumps. Our newest pump is a 20 Meter (z) boom
that doesn’t have the usual yellow and red company colors. It was painted
pink for Breast Cancer awareness.
For every yard of concrete this truck
pumps, a percentage will be donated. Marcus King, Owner, of Modern Concrete
Pumping, Inc., explains, “We wanted to show our support for our good friend
Carol Corriveau, who is currently fighting Breast Cancer. So we put her name
on the pump.
We felt that if we could get the word out by using our pumps it
will increase awareness and hopefully provoke people to donate. This new
machine is a popular size truck that many customers will request. We are
hoping it will be used every day to increase the amount of money we will be
donating. We also printed new company shirts. Not the usual safety green, or
orange you will see on most construction sites, but
pink.”
Carol
Corriveau is a Speech-Language Pathologist in the Newington School system
and loved by many. Her husband, Dean was in the concrete pumping industry,
and now is a Newington, CT Police officer. Both hold careers serving the
community.
They are a great family and have a lot of support and many people
behind them. Carol explains, “I believe this pump will generate awareness
for people to not only donate to a great cause but to remind women to make a
mammogram appointment for themselves. Whether it’s visible on the road, or
on a job site, I’m confident this will increase awareness.”
Our new
20Meter Z boom has vertical reach of 66′ and an unfolding height of only 12’, 8” making it ideal for
setting up:
