Tarmac<\/a> has partnered with the Port of Tilbury<\/a>, to create the UK\u2019s largest construction materials aggregates terminal at Tilbury2 on the north bank of the River Thames<\/h2>\r\n

The work will see the creation of\u00a0new\u00a0aggregate processing and manufacturing facilities,\u00a0including an\u00a0asphalt and\u00a0ready mix\u00a0concrete\u00a0plant,\u00a0at the new port terminal<\/a>, supported by the terminal\u2019s deep sea capacity for vessels up to 100,000 metric tonnes.\u00a0Its riverside location will\u00a0enable the easy import of raw materials and facilitate the use of the River Thames as a delivery route for processed construction materials into Central London.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n

Martin Riley, senior vice president of Tarmac, said: \u201cWe\u2019re delighted to be working in partnership with Forth Ports on this project. It demonstrates our firm commitment to the development of industry leading infrastructure to support the delivery of the UK\u2019s long-term built environment ambitions.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\r\n

Tarmac\u2019s Mark Wood, managing director \u2013 Materials South, said: \u201cThis exclusive development will ensure the long-term security of aggregate supplies into London and the South East, allowing us to support vital construction projects while using alternative transportation methods for the movement of materials, taking vehicles off the congested roads around the capital and using the Thames as a means of importing aggregates and other bulk materials into London.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\r\n

Charles Hammond, chief executive of Forth Ports, owners of the Port of Tilbury, said: \u201cOur investment in the development of Tilbury2 is essential for the Port of Tilbury to accommodate the growing demand from our customers.<\/p>\r\n

“This announcement sees the creation of the country\u2019s biggest construction materials processing hub in partnership with Tarmac, the UK\u2019s largest supplier of construction materials, and is a valued addition to the broad range of partnerships we have right across our Tilbury facility.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n

Peter Ward, commercial director at the Port of Tilbury, added: \u201cWe look forward to welcoming Tarmac to Tilbury2 when the facility opens in 2020. The port\u2019s deep sea capacity for vessels up to 100,000 tonnes positions it uniquely to service Tarmac\u2019s planned on-site aggregate processing and manufacturing facilities.<\/p>\r\n

“Tarmac\u2019s location within Tilbury2 will ensure that the construction industry in London and the South East of England can have fast access to the materials they require.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\r\n

Joint development of the site by\u00a0the Port of\u00a0Tilbury\u00a0and Tarmac will take place through late 2019 to establish most operations by\u00a0the\u00a0end\u00a0of\u00a02020.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n
