At A Glance
- This Alert Affects:
- Anyone who experienced spalling, flaking, peeling or other issues with a new driveway installed in 2025 or later using Richfield Concrete’s Titan 5000 concrete mix—manufactured by Amrize—as well as contractors who repaired or replaced the driveways.
- What’s Going On?
- Attorneys working with ClassAction.org believe that the Amrize-produced Titan 5000 concrete may be defective despite being advertised as appropriately durable for harsh Minnesota winters. They’re looking into whether lawsuits can be filed on behalf of consumers and contractors who had to pay to replace or repair driveways that were damaged after just one winter.
- How Could a Lawsuit Help?
- A successful class action lawsuit could help compensate consumers for the cost of repairing and/or replacing their driveways, and help contractors recoup business expenses incurred while having to redo or repair driveways they recently installed.
Attorneys working with ClassAction.org are investigating whether there is a defect with Titan 5000 concrete that causes new driveways to degrade prematurely.
Lawsuits are being considered to help compensate both homeowners whose new driveways have been damaged and contractors who’ve repaired or replaced new Titan 5000 driveways.
Consumers have reported that their new, Titan 5000 driveways began peeling, flaking and spalling—meaning the surface layer has started to break apart, often resulting in the concrete crumbling, chipping, and developing small, crater-like pits—after just one winter.
What Is Titan 5000 Concrete?
In 2023, Richfield Concrete—a contractor local to the Twin Cities area in Minnesota—announced it was rolling out a new, proprietary granite-concrete mix called Titan 5000, manufactured by Amrize, a spin-off of international construction supplier Holcim.
Per Richfield’s announcement, the Titan 5000 mix “has been formulated to withstand the harsh Minnesota winters while producing 50% fewer carbon emissions than the industry standards.” The company additionally claims that its granite-concrete mix is a high-performance material with features including a low water-to-cement ratio, rebar reinforcement, and an above-industry strength of 5000 PSI.
However, the attorneys investigating this case believe that driveways installed using Titan 5000 may have already seen significant concrete spalling, flaking and peeling, which they suspect could indicate the new concrete mix may be defective.
How Could an Amrize Concrete Lawsuit Help?
If filed and successful, a class action lawsuit could help compensate affected homeowners for the costs of repairing or replacing their driveways, as well as potentially helping contractors who performed the installations recover business costs incurred in the replacement of recently installed driveways.
