Bulk and Bagged Aggregates and Bulk Cement Supplier

Based at Thomas Armstrong’s Head Office in Flimby since 1986, Thomas Armstrong (Aggregates) Ltd success is also due to their attention to detail, high quality products and a dedicated, customer focused service.

The haulage of high-quality locally sourced aggregates, specialist sands, gravel and recycled aggregates has been part of the Thomas Armstrong (Aggregates) Ltd long-standing history, giving the company the foundations and ethos to become the reputable company it is today. With this, this professional company has grown and developed to become one of the leading suppliers of aggregates and cement to the building, ready mixed concrete, and construction industries.

Today, the company continues to supply a wide range of high-quality aggregates from their own Overby and Cardewmires quarries in Cumbria as well as our cement terminals at the ports in Sunderland and Workington. Our diverse and wide product range of readily available cement, sands, gravels, graded limestone plus other recycled aggregate and hardcore are available for supply to merchants and direct to clients and customers throughout Cumbria, North West, and North East of England.

Bulk Loose and Bagged Aggregates

Sand

Our high-quality general-purpose sand is a highly popular and common aggregate used within the building and construction industry. Its effectiveness is been able to supply quality assured construction building materials like asphalt, concrete, mortar, render, cement, and screed.

Each sand product is suitable for various applications such as building and construction, landscaping, concrete components, water filtration, agriculture as well as general purpose construction projects.

Gravel

Our construction gravel is a hard-wearing material made from natural occurring crushed sandstone, limestone, and basalt, making it ideal when building a solid foundation. It is most commonly used in road construction, drainage, concrete and all construction projects.

Ballast

Our coarsest and heavier aggregates, Ballast, is a cost effective and durable solution for a diverse range of construction and DIY projects.

Ideal for domestic, industrial or commercial building applications, our Ballast aggregate is made up of high-quality sand, stone, and gravel.

This versatile aggregate increases the strength of concrete and is ideal for DIY, concreting, site batching and ready-mix operations.

Cement

We import our 52.5R CEM 1 cement which is ideal where a high early strength is required but also provides better performance at all stages of strength development.

Stored in our importing terminals at Sunderland and Workington ports, our cement is suitable for various applications such as the Ready-Mix market but also in Ready-Mix operations where high strength or reinforced concrete is required. Cement is also widely used in the production of prestressed and precast concrete elements.
