An Introduction to our Company |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Concrete Company is an independent company, wholly owned and run by Tim & Jennie Dighton, and is now the second largest independently owned readymix supplier in the U.K. |
|
|
|
|
|
Formed in 1990 at our original location at Station Road, Thorney, Peterborough, England, with one, 3 cubic metre readymixed truck, the company has expanded to total 15 plants, with an annual turnover of over £13 million per annum. |
|
|
|
|
|
Our portfolio of customers now stretches from national construction contractors, through the Ministry of Defence and the utilities, to local builders and C.O.D. customers. |

|
The introduction of a pumping service in 1998 was a great asset to us and we are now the only supplier of both readymix and pumping service in the area, and the largest supplier of concrete pumping locally. We supply liquid screed also. |
|
|
In early 2003, we acquired Minimix Norfolk Ltd, based in Norwich, which had a strong presence in the Norfolk mini load market. This now operates alongside our traditional 'Concrete Company' business.
At the same time, we acquired the transport business of a Peterborough based haulier and so Tim Dighton Transport was born.This widened our haulage base and enabled us to extend our service carrying bulk loads for both the agricultural and construction markets

The company operates a laboratory which is certified by The Quality Scheme for Ready Mixed Concrete.
