Brookland Sand and Aggregates delivers more than one million tonnes of product in single trading year for the first time
Milestone achieved with fifteen McCloskey machines producing more than 40 products
Company on track for a further 50% increase in delivered product in next 12 months
Brookland Sand and Aggregates Limited has, for the first time in its trading history, delivered more than one million tonnes of product in a twelve-month period. Behind the milestone achievement are 15 McCloskey machines, integral to the delivery of more than 40 separate products.
Operating from Littlejohns China Clay Pit, the largest China Clay pit in the world, the Saint Austell based company takes vast quantities of granite, rock and sand, a by-product from the process of extracting Kaolin, from the quarry’s operators. The material is highly abrasive and varies greatly in size, ranging from fine sands to 25-tonne boulders.
There is plenty going on to enjoy this month
