Quality aggregates from the bountiful reserves of the deep water quays in Norway
Standing out from the crowd
With efficient production, round-the-clock distribution and progressive company philosophy the customer base is expanding across Europe and beyond. We are arguably the most successful quarrying operation in Norway, with consented mineral reserves in excess of 200 million tonnes of the highest quality granite/gneiss.
Coupled with our strength and expertise in shipping, customers receive the most flexible and reliable service. At Halsvik, quality goes far beyond the stone itself. Quality of service, ongoing development and training and safe operations are of paramount importance, as expected from a leading aggregates supplier. We hold industry quality standards and have a progressive environmental policy.
It is all about Location
Our super-quarry in Gulen is situated just 50 miles north of Bergen on the west coast of Norway. It is ideally located to serve the ports of the Norwegian, North and Baltic seas. In addition, the quarry at Kvalsund in Finnmark, near Hammerfest, means that aggregates are available from the far north of the country.
With established customers from Norway to Latvia, Northern Europe to Scandinavia, Russia to the U.K. and long-term contracts with the North Sea oil industry, we have earned its reputation for quality products and a flexible service. From continued investment in new locations and technology, capacity is increasing, giving the ability to reach even more customers from further afield.
