Heavy plant operating in the Goonvean pit

Construction aggregates



From twenty tonne armour stone to fine mortar sands, Goonvean can supply a full range of materials for the construction industry and building products markets. All products are tested to comply with European standards or, where requested, customers’ own specifications.

Bulk fill materials, road construction aggregates, drainage materials, concrete and rendering sands, the nature of Goonvean reserves allows us to deliver a huge range of products. With five separate aggregate units we can meet your delivery requirements from long-term bulk contracts to individual loads.

Over the years we have worked closely with building products manufacturers to provide the specific raw materials needed to allow them to produce efficiently. Gradings are altered to minimise cement demand, and customers of the unique Rostowrack sands benefit from exceptional white appearance and extreme frost resistance.

Concrete manufacturers are supplied with single size aggregates and course and fine grade sands.

House builders can be supplied with all of their needs, from stone for estate roads and fill materials to mortar sands. For decades local communities have enjoyed the typical Cornish appearance of rendered grey houses, often courtesy of our Greensplat sands.

Whatever your construction needs, Goonvean can supply the right product. We can even deliver in shiploads.
