I am not aware of any connection but IBH may be able to tell us more about hy-mix.
Hymac did invest money in crane development but excavators was still their main product for which they were renown.

Re: hymix
Hi, no connection at all with Hymac, Hymix started building mixer drums in Hortonwood Telford Shropshire in 1988/89 and I think the company was set up by some old employees of Ritemixer, my father had the sixth mixer to be built by them in 89 on a 2421 Leyland Constructor for Topmix.

Re: hymix
Welcome to CMN Ian 
I'd recently posted a message about a photo of Ritemixes Old Factory that id found in a old thread id missed on here. So I'm curious as to why Hy-Mix set up in Telford when Ritemixers factory was at Chesterfield ?
Do you have any more info on Hy-mix or any photos of there products ?

I thought they had gone as not seen any lately (but then not seen many concrete trucks at all round here other than the Mini mix ones as the only thing being built are extensions)Heres a Hymix that was at Astwood Bank
Seen a few Liebherr last year at shows, heres one also from Aswood Bank.
Not sure on make of this one but its a big uinit on an 8x4 Paccar/Foden chassis
Mixers & skip trucks are one of those areas i keep thinking i should add a few bits on but not really looked at properly, just stuck the odd photo on from shows.

Tidy unit Steve Is it one of yours ? The Big boys fleet always look clean these days and even the small minimix firms tend to look reasonably smart. And nowdays washing out on sites often a problem with the wastage and wash off & the environmental officers insisting on contaiment of all run off water.
what size truck is it ? (i not up on Renault truck sizes) looks bigger than 7.5 ton but smaller than a 17 tonner ?
