SME News | Scottish Enterprise Awards 2023 | 20 Allstone Glasgow Ltd, established in 2010, is Scotland’s go-to supplier for soils and aggregates. Promising to deliver from 1 to 1000 tonnes of product throughout a variety of sectors, it has quickly amassed a thriving client base – one that’s comprised of leaders in their own respective industries. From landscapers, house builders, construction contractors, and sports construction companies, Allstone Glasgow Ltd’s partnerships have led to it acquiring a wealth of experience that truly enhances its capabilities. In addition, by providing access to quality plant hire, recycling and remediation, crushing and screening, and spreading works services, Allstone Glasgow Ltd has managed to distinguish itself as a comprehensive specialist in getting the job done right. Its first class service is one of Allstone Glasgow Ltd’s greatest achievements. It holds an unapologetic dedication to its customers, for whom the team provide only the best soil and aggregates. Through tireless work and devotion to its craft, Allstone Glasgow Ltd has mastered the art of meetings demands without a hitch, all whilst maintaining a level of quality throughout its services that knows no competitor. However, its most defining trait is arguably the sourcing of its materials – by utilising soil and aggregates originating from Scotland, not only is Allstone Glasgow Ltd able to reduce its carbon footprint via lower transport emissions, but it assists the region’s businesses in retaining their Scottish heritage, down to the very soil and aggregates that it uses. To truly understand Allstone Glasgow Ltd, however, we believe it’s necessary to first understand its products. As suppliers of soil and aggregates, Allstone Glasgow Ltd delivers a welcome variety of products, each carefully selected based on the most common needs of its clients. Let’s start with its ‘As Dug’ and Screened Top Soil (NHBC BS3882). As the foundation of the company’s success, this product has been specifically sourced with client requirements in mind. And yet, what sets Allstone Glasgow Ltd’s Topsoil apart is the rigorous quality control that it must pass before it’s even considered for commercial products. The same can be said for its Puddle Clay – more commonly referred to as ‘Engineering Clay’. Puddle Clay has been used for a number of years during the construction of damns, reservoirs, and canals, and has lately been adapted to suit the qualities required for lining and capping landfill sites to prevent harmful leaching. By compressing the clay via trained excavators, Allstone Glasgow Ltd delivers Puddle Clay to serve as the perfect waterproof barrier for any canal or lake – one that is practically impermeable. This is, of course, a result of Allstone Glasgow Ltd’s intricate testing process, through which it ensures that the product is of the highest possible quality before delivering it to its clients for use. However, the product line doesn’t end there. Aggregates, mostly recognised as coarse, decorative stones that are often used to fill spaces, cover soil, and prevent the growth of weeds, have become a staple throughout a large variety of commercial and private construction projects alike. And, as expected, Allstone Glasgow Ltd is prepared to deliver top quality aggregates to each and every one. Whilst some aggregates can arrive looking far less impressive than initially marketed, Allstone Glasgow Ltd ensures that such an occurrence never takes place under its watch. As with its Topsoil and Puddle Clay, it sources only the very best, before delivering it in a timely manner to any site across Scotland. This impressive product roster is only made possible due to the diligence of Allstone Glasgow Ltd’s team. Boasting a combined industry experience of over 200 years, the workforce behind Allstone Glasgow Ltd is comprised of incredibly committed individuals, each imbued with an invaluable passion that allows them to excavate only the best materials, services, and ideas for its clients. Though some may think that acquiring soil and aggregates is a somewhat straightforward process, this is rarely the case. And, for this very reason, Allstone Glasgow Ltd has ensured that it’s equipped with a highly experienced team – one that’s ready to transcend the call of duty to make each client’s project go as smoothly as it can. We believe that sharing statements from the directors Gerry Sweeney and Stewart McNeish will give readers a deeper understanding of the inner workings of Allstone Glasgow Ltd, from the lens of its most involved members. Gerry comments - “We quality test everything that is sent out to our customers. We will deliver anything - from 1 tonne to 1000s of tonnes - and have delivered as far North as Fort Augustus and as far South of Scotland as Carlisle.” Whilst Stewart shares -“‘Service. Quality. Price’. You need all three factors to become successful in our industry, and we strive to achieve all three.” As a final testament to Allstone Glasgow Ltd’s brilliance, we turn to transport manager Robert Tipping’s outlook on the collective, and what it means to him – “We have become so successful because we pride ourselves on three things: service, quality and availability. We are in constant contact with the customers, offering them premium soil where and how they want it. I have organised 300,000T of material in the last two years with very few issues. Our drivers go out of their way to make sure the customers get the loads tipped where they need with no hassle. We all work well as a team to make sure the job gets done.” Truly, Allstone Glasgow Ltd holds pride in abundance – it has worked extremely hard to reach the position that it finds itself in today, and we’re sure that its impressive track record will only continue as it moves towards the new year.
