Wincanton has won a new, five-year deal with Aggregate Industries (AI) for the distribution of concrete products from a majority of its UK manufacturing sites.

Aggregate Industries is the foremost UK brand of the world’s leading global construction materials and solutions company, LafargeHolcim.

Under the new agreement, Wincanton will operate a dedicated fleet of specialised vehicles, backed up by its extensive national network, from 10 factories to customers across the country.


This deal is in addition to two existing contracts which cover distribution of bulk and packed cement from AI’s Cauldon works and the provision of Readymix assets.

Chris Fenton, Managing Director, Industrial & Transport at Wincanton, said:

"Our existing relationship with AI has enabled us to demonstrate our commitment to service excellence.

"This, combined with our track record for delivering an efficient and sustainable specialist vehicle network, and our best in class Health & Safety record, were all factors in securing this contract."

Shaun Elliott, Head of Logistics, Concrete Products at Aggregate Industries added:

"We have witnessed Wincanton’s ability to deliver on major national contracts at our Cauldon bulk operation. We have also seen how their commitment to continuous improvement can generate material benefits across the business.  We are looking forward to the Wincanton team joining our concrete products operation."
