Launched in selective areas of the UK, Plasmor introduce the new lightweight, sustainable all purpose housebuilder block - AGLITE ULTIMA - a new cost effective alternative to the standard breeze block.

Plasmor have embarked upon a National Road Show of technical seminars and workshops delivering the sustainability message to Architects, Housebuilders, Local Authority Building Control and Builders Merchants.

The recently published GALLERIA brochure of Plaspave Concrete Block Paving has inspired and impressed both householders and paving contractors alike.

At a time when traditional lightweight block-making aggregates are rapidly diminishing in supply, Plasmor has secured the long-term future of block making at all of its manufacturing sites across the UK. In Spring 2007, Plasmor doubled its output of the "Plasmor-unique" expanded clay with the commissioning of a second expanded clay kiln.

This years record annual investment of £2.3m keeps Plasmor products on the move. A flexible range of rigid and draw-bar vehicles from SCANIA, M.A.N. and HINO replace the discontinued FODEN lorries that have been the Plasmor workhorse for over 30 years.

The conservation of fuel and power, the reduction of Carbon Dioxide emissions, the arrest of Climate Change and the commitment to Sustainable design and construction is central to Government Housing Policy.
