Why the CPM-8 Crete-Planer Is Still the Industry’s #1 Choice

When contractors and rental centers need a reliable scarifier, they turn to EDCO’s CPM-8 Crete-Planer. It’s not flashy. It doesn’t need to be. The CPM-8 simply works harder, job after job, year after year—and that’s why it’s still our best-selling machine.

The CPM-8 isn’t designed to sit in a showroom. It’s designed for the grind of everyday concrete work: removing trip hazards, cleaning coatings, and leveling rough surfaces.

  • Trip hazard removal on sidewalks and walkways.
  • Coatings and markings removal to keep projects moving.
  • Surface leveling that prepares slabs for overlays and finishes.

Crews trust it because it gets results. Rental centers trust it because it keeps performing job after job.

Pair the CPM-8 with EDCO’s PCD (Polycrystalline Diamond) Drums, and productivity takes another leap. PCD tooling cuts through coatings and adhesives faster than standard accessories. That means:

  • Quicker surface prep.
  • Less time swapping tooling.
  • More jobs finished in less time.

For contractors, that’s profit. For rental centers, that’s customer satisfaction and repeat business.

The CPM-8 is straightforward to operate, simple to maintain, and tough enough for the most demanding environments.

  • Contractors get a dependable machine that pays for itself quickly.
  • Rental centers get a machine that holds up to constant use and continues to earn.

It’s built to deliver value on both sides of the industry.

There’s a reason the CPM-8 Crete-Planer is EDCO’s number one seller. It works harder, it lasts longer, and it delivers real results. Whether you buy it for your crew or stock it in your rental fleet, the CPM-8 is a machine that keeps working when the job demands more.
