Cloburn Quarry
Situated in the historic county of Lanarkshire in Scotland, Cloburn Quarry boasts red granite, formed from molten lava millions of years ago. As expansion plans were underway, the team recognised the pivotal role health and safety plays in their operations. One primary concern was the potential impact of increased traffic on local roads, leading to hazardous mud conditions. In response, the quarry made a strategic investment in the Wheelwash 6m Ecowash Extra system to mitigate these risks.
