Case Study
Goonvean Aggregates
Located in St. Austell, Cornwall, Goonvean Aggregates is a major supplier of aggregates, sands and gravels, with the ability to process, wash and produce an extensive range of granite based secondary aggregates.
The senior management identified the need for a capital project to invest in a ‘wash plant’. The investment was to support a refocus on recycled product, ensuring the processing of secondary aggregates created and supported a ‘true’ zero to tip philosophy. Utilising the new technology, all materials received to site, as well as ‘mining’ historic waste materials, would be processed to achieve a commercial output.
Solution
The capital project attained Goonvean Group Board approval and so the equipment was ordered.
Outcome
Following a period of commissioning, the new wash plant was operational and provided the company with improved processing capabilities and leaving zero to tip on all materials processed.
