Customers include some of the country’s leading names in architecture, construction, civil engineering, housebuilding and property developments and it has been involved in numerous prestige projects, ranging from multi-million pound city centre redevelopments and quality housing, to civic cultural centres and premier sports arenas.

Coltman produces in excess of 114,250 tonnes of precast concrete each year, consisting of 250,000 square metres of prestressed hollowcore flooring and 4,000 cubic metres of bespoke precast concrete products.

Under its established management team of Nigel Gilbert and Ian Gould, who have been with the company 21 years and 28 years respectively, the company continues to face a bright future.
