Glenbank Slope Stabilisation
Monday, 14th November 2011

Contract Name: CPD Minor Works, Belfast Site: Glenbank Business Park, Crumlin Road, Belfast

In order to stabilise an existing embankment to allow for future development of Glenbank Business Park, Whitemountain worked in partnership with CAB to complete 5,000 cubic metres of Lime ground stabilisation. The requirement for a sustainable solution to the poor ground conditions encountered on this site was the key driver in the use of Lime soil stabilisation.

The work involved excavating existing material to a depth of 4.0 metres and the compaction of the reinstated land using established lime stabilisation methods.

The work was completed within a 4 week period during September 2011.

Future Phases at Alpha
Thursday, 30th October 2008

Alpha Resource Management intends to develop a further three phases at the site at Mullaghglass.

Phase 2 was fully operational mid-2008. The construction of Phase 2B commenced October 2008 is due to be completed in April 2009.

These will be closely followed by the planning and development and construction of phase III and IV.

Mullaghglass site will have the capacity for 2 million tonnes of waste which equates to a life span of between 10 to 15 years.

At the end of its life the site will be fully restored in keeping with the local environment.

ALPHA and the Community
Wednesday, 30th April 2008

The Alpha Programme is funded through Landfill Tax Credits generated from the Mullaghglass site.

It invites groups within a ten mile radius of the site to apply for funding to improve or enhance their local community, amenities and countryside.

Groundwork NI manages the Alpha Programme on behalf of Alpha Resource Management. Further details are available from the web link: www.groundworkni.co.uk.

Since the scheme was launched in January 2008 numerous enquiries for funding have been made and the Company looks forward to seeing the local community benefit.

As of October 2008 community projects have received £160,000 in grants through the Alpha Project.

Lagan Brick at Victoria Square
Friday, 4th April 2008

Lagan Brick has played a pivotal role in the creation of one of Belfast’s most impressive developments in recent years.

Victoria Square opened in the city centre in March – a brand new mixed use complex offering high quality shopping and leisure opportunities alongside luxury apartments.

Kingscourt ‘Grafton’ bricks feature prominently in the development. The range was chosen due to its appearance which matches the old brickwork of Belfast and its ability to be easily incorporated into modern architectural design.

Over 240,000 bricks were supplied for the apartments on Chichester Street, ensuring Lagan Brick leaves its mark on the city centre.
