Guy Edwards, Chief Executive Officer at Aggregate Industries UK, said: "These well-deserved award wins recognise the hard work and dedication Dave and Katie have put into their work and studies. These accolades are an example of not only their successes but also the positive contribution their achievements have had on their respective teams and sites.
"We're also proud that following Dave's dissertation results, the Northern Asphalt Team rolled out the use of Warm Mix Additives to a number of sites which have optimised production significantly, as well as improving our sustainability performance. We're looking forward to seeing the positive impact these employees will continue to have on the business in the years to come."
