The site sits on Poulton Business Park, which is straightforward to access by van or small truck and well-positioned for tradespeople working across the Fylde peninsula. MJ Teale is an established recycling and aggregates operation, so most trade customers in the area will already know the site.
What Is fibo Collect?
fibo Collect is an automated self-service concrete batching system that produces freshly mixed concrete, mortar, and screed on demand. The machine is operated via a touchscreen control panel. Customers select their product and grade, choose the quantity required, complete payment, and collect — the entire process from arrival to loaded vehicle typically takes under five minutes.
Unlike traditional ready mix concrete suppliers, fibo Collect has no minimum order threshold, requires no advance booking, and operates on a pay-for-what-you-use basis. The machine batches each order fresh at the point of collection, ensuring consistent mix quality regardless of how small the quantity. A single fibo Collect machine is capable of producing up to 16m³ per hour.
The Blackpool installation at MJ Teale is part of the fibo Collect UK network, which operates self-service batching systems at builders merchants and aggregate suppliers across England, Scotland, and Wales.
Concrete Mixes Available in Blackpool
The fibo Collect machine at MJ Teale stocks eleven concrete products covering a full range of grades from lean fill through to high-strength industrial mixes. Every batch is produced to a fixed automated recipe, so the specification is consistent across every collection.
Mix | Typical Application |
ecoC8/10 | Drainage and non-structural projects; lean fill |
ecoC12/15 | House floors where a non-permanent surface finish will be applied |
ecoC16/20 | Domestic floors and shed bases with lighter load requirements |
ecoC20/25 | Shed bases, garden wall foundations, kerbing, and general ground foundations |
ecoC25/30 | Paving, reinforced hard standings, and external kennels |
ecoC28/35 | Reinforced house foundations, retaining wall foundations, driveways, and garage floor slabs |
ecoC32/40 | Agricultural and industrial buildings requiring higher strength |
Semi-Dry 10mm | Flags, kerbing, and paving — enhanced workability |
Semi-Dry 20mm | Foundations and roadworks — stronger and more durable |
No-Fines 10mm | Open-texture permeable concrete for use beneath resin surfaces |
Kerb Mix ecoST2 | Specialist mix for kerb installation |
Guidance only, not professional advice. Always confirm mix and volume with a qualified professional and your supplier before ordering.

Who Is This For?
The fibo Collect machine at MJ Teale serves the full range of trade and domestic customers working across Blackpool and the wider Fylde Coast. Because MJ Teale is a well-known aggregates and recycling site, many customers are experienced trade operators who already use the yard for sand, gravel, and recycled materials — the concrete machine extends what they can collect in a single visit.
Landscapers and patio specialists working on driveways, patios, and garden projects across the Fylde Coast are among the most frequent users. The semi-dry mixes, ecoC25/30, and no-fines grades cover the full range of hard landscaping applications from flags and kerbing through to resin base preparation.
Groundworkers and civil contractors on residential developments across Blackpool, Poulton, and Thornton regularly collect ecoC28/35 and ecoC32/40 for reinforced foundations, slab work, and retaining structures.
Driveway and block paving contractors — an active trade across the Fylde given the volume of residential improvement work — find the semi-dry and no-fines mixes particularly useful for kerb beds and sub-base applications.
Farmers and agricultural contractors across the Fylde peninsula use ecoC32/40 for hardstandings, yard slabs, and agricultural building floors. The weekday-only schedule aligns well with how most agricultural jobs are planned.
Builders and general contractors handling smaller jobs — extensions, outbuildings, garden walls, and domestic groundworks — use the mid-range grades (ecoC20/25 through ecoC28/35) for the bulk of their work.
DIY customers and homeowners tackling shed bases, garden walls, or driveway repairs can collect precisely what they need without committing to a full cubic metre.
How It Works — Step by Step
Drive to Kingscourt Recycling Centre, Beacon Road, Poulton Business Park, Poulton-le-Fylde, FY6 8JE during opening hours (Mon–Fri, 7:30am–4:30pm)
Pull up to the fibo Collect machine and use the touchscreen control panel
Select your product type — concrete in this case — and choose your grade from the full list
Enter the quantity you need, starting from 0.25m³
Complete payment via the terminal
The machine batches your mix fresh and dispenses directly into your vehicle, trailer, or mortar tub
Drive away — the entire process typically takes under five minutes from arrival to loaded
The fibo Collect app (iOS and Android) lets you manage orders and payment digitally before you arrive, which speeds up the process further for regular customers who know their usual specification.
Why Collect Concrete in Blackpool Rather Than Order Ready Mix?
Traditional ready mix concrete delivery works well when you need a full load and can plan around a delivery slot. For the majority of trade jobs on the Fylde Coast — smaller foundations, driveway sections, patio bases, agricultural repairs, and residential groundworks — it's often the wrong tool for the job.
No minimum order. Standard ready mix suppliers typically require a minimum of 1m³, with a short load surcharge on top if you don't hit it. fibo Collect starts at 0.25m³. You pay for exactly what the job needs, nothing more.
No booking required. Ready mix concrete involves coordinating a delivery slot, arranging site access, and making sure you're ready to pour at a specific time. With fibo Collect, you turn up when the job needs it. If the job changes in the morning, you collect in the afternoon — no calls, no rebooking fees.
Fast turnaround. A concrete delivery wagon needs to be planned around its route. fibo Collect batches and loads in under five minutes. For tradespeople working to tight daily schedules across multiple sites, that turnaround is significant.
Pay for exactly what you use. Ordering a ready mix delivery and receiving more than you need means either wasting material or finding somewhere to put it. Collecting a precise batch from fibo Collect eliminates that problem entirely.
Collect alongside other materials. Because the machine is located at MJ Teale — an aggregates and recycling yard — you can collect concrete at the same stop where you're picking up sand, gravel, or recycled aggregate. That's one trip instead of two.
