"Guillontine" crushed roughly 16,000 square yards of concrete in just over a week.
With a name like the "Guillotine", it's perfect for Halloween—but there's nothing scary about how effective this machine is.
At our Mesa Gateway Airport Runway 12R-30L Reconstruction Phase II project in Arizona, our subcontractor Antigo Construction is using the T8600 Badger Breaker® (with its "guillotine-style" breaker) to break through 16 inches of PCCP. Antigo is a leader in concrete breaking and rubblizing, and this powerful machine enables us to break down existing pavement efficiently.
Beyond raw power, the Badger Breaker offers a sustainability edge—it produces less dust than traditional methods, improving air quality and site safety. That makes it better for our team and the surrounding community.
We seek out innovative, cost-effective solutions like this across our aviation, transportation, and heavy civil projects. It's one of the ways we deliver exceptional value for our clients across Arizona and beyond.
