In the last three years, 465 incidents of road worker abuse have been reported in Birmingham. That’s why today, organisations and companies that work to improve Birmingham’s roads, including Tarmac, have launched a new campaign Expect Respect – to urge the public to respect its road workers. 

Employees from Tarmac’s Tunstead Cement Plant, in Buxton, came together for a day of activities to mark World Environment Day.

It’s an old cliché: “What gets measured, gets managed.” Yet in the transition to net zero, this adage from the 1950s is highly relevant to understanding carbon emissions data for all companies and their supply chains today.    

Runners in Buxton, Derbyshire, recently laced up their running shoes to take part in the Buxton Half Marathon, which was supported by Tarmac’s Tunstead Quarry. 

Whilst exhibiting at this year's Hertfordshire County Show, Tarmac took the opportunity to recognise the hard-working Panshanger Park volunteers who work year-round to help make the park a success.

The entranceway to Staffordshire’s National Memorial Arboretum now features a new sculptural addition which has been crafted using stone donated by Tarmac from its Mountsorrel Quarry, near Loughborough, in Leicestershire.

Tarmac colleagues turned out in force to celebrate a sunny Birmingham Pride weekend, alongside construction partners from the Balfour Beatty VINCI (BBV) and High Speed 2 (HS2) supply chain.  

Tarmac, the UK’s leading sustainable building materials and construction solutions business, has signed up to a major national campaign that is helping the logistics industry accelerate its journey to net zero.

A donation of £94,341 from the Tarmac Landfill Communities Fund has seen Welbeck Street Recreation Ground in Whitwell, Derbyshire, receive a complete overhaul after almost 30 years of use.

Tarmac’s Aberthaw Cement Plant has supported Barry Town Veterans FC with the donation of a pitch side defibrillator.
