Introduction

Breedon Group is a key player in the UK and Ireland’s construction materials sector, specialising in cement, aggregates, asphalt and ready-mixed concrete.

The Requirement

With sustainability central to their operations, Breedon Group needed an on-site welfare solution that was both environmentally responsible and fully functional for their workforce. Traditional diesel-powered welfare units were costly and conflicted with their carbon reduction targets. The challenge was to find a modern, spacious welfare unit that would provide essential facilities while significantly cutting fuel use and emissions.

This advanced unit features a fully equipped canteen, office space and two toilets, ensuring workers have access to vital facilities without reliance on diesel generators. Its energy-efficient design not only enhanced the working environment but also strengthened Breedon Group’s sustainability commitments.
