WORKING WITH THE ENVIRONMENT,NOT AGAINST IT
From our own on-site recycling plant to our supply of recycled aggregates, we’re devoted to neutralising any negative environmental impact caused by quarrying.
NATURAL QUARRY PRODUCTS, MINIMALENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
We can’t live without the resources that quarries provide. From roads and surfaces, to buildings and construction - and even to sea defences - quarry products and aggregates form the basis of many of the structures that we come into contact with on a daily basis.
THE WILLIAM THOMPSON & SON GUARANTEE
We work closely with the environment; therefore its preservation is an issue close to our heart. We promise to keep investing and improving our methods of quarrying so that we may have as little impact on the environment as possible.
WORKING COLLABORATIVELY TO PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT
We’re proud to work closely with the following bodies to ensure that we’re taking all the correct environmental procedures:
S.E.P.A. (Scottish Environmental Protection Agency)
Historic Scotland
Environmental Health
West Dumbartonshire Council
RECYCLING
William Thompson & Son also provide recycled aggregates
as a means of minimising the environmental impact of our quarry. Recycled from construction projects, secondary aggregates are a cheap and eco-friendly solution to your building and groundworks needs.
SAFE, NON-HAZARDOUS LANDFILL
What we cannot recycle can be disposed of in a safe and eco-friendly way at our S.E.P.A licensed landfill site. As a former quarry itself, our landfill project
is dedicated to restoring the natural landscape.
