Hose-O Wins MIP for 2008

Mayco's Hose- O wins the 2008 Most Innovative Product award in the Concrete Delivery Category. Held each year at the World of Concrete, the MIP contest showcases many of the new products exhibited at the tradeshow. 

Both World of Concrete attendees and the Industry Expert judges had their hands full this year reviewing 145 entries in 14 different categories. A panel of industry experts also reviews the products in terms of innovation they bring to the industry.*

The Hose-O is a doughnut-shaped ring of lightweight and polyethylene foam material that fits around concrete pump hoses from 2 inches to 4 inches, eliminating the typical jobsite damage due to hose weight and movement. This economical solution is suitable for all jobsites and especially useful with existing landscaping or surfaces that need protection.

The Hose-O is also ideal for water pump applications – it keeps hoses out of mud, damaging rocks, and debris.

The 2008 MIP contest once again proved that innovation is still alive and well in the concrete and masonry production and construction industries.
