What We Do
Each year we supply over 5 million tonnes of quarry products and a variety of services to the construction, waste and water treatment sectors.
Most of the products we sell are transported by rail directly from quarries into our depots, before going the ‘last mile’ on our lorries, and each year the Company recycles a million tonnes of construction and demolition waste and incinerator bottom ash.
By minimising lorry miles, carbon dioxide emissions and congestion are also reduced. And with less waste going to landfill it isn’t just our lorries that are green!
