Leading supplier of EPDM rubber- based roofing membranes and lining systems, Firestone Building Products UK and Ireland, has made accessing information about the company’s products, capabilities and technical support easier than ever with the launch of a dedicated UK and Ireland website.
The new site -

Designed to provide accessible and up-to-date information about the products and services Firestone offers in the UK and Ireland, the website is optimised for use on any device via any browser, making it a useful tool and reference for contractors and specifiers, both in the office and out on site.
Explains Commercial Manager of Firestone Building Products in the UK and Ireland, John McMullan: “In the past, our customers, contractors and specifiers could access information about our products and technical support via our European website but this was not tailored to a UK and Ireland audience. The new website has been designed to be more relevant to the local market.
“Our European website is still available and relevant to our business but our new website has been specifically designed for a

The new website includes a training section featuring a calendar of planned training sessions at Firestone’s UK headquarters in Cheshire and online sign up to register interest in attending. It also includes case studies and images of UK projects that have been completed using Firestone products.
John McMullan continues: “We understand that our website is often the first point of contact for specifiers, contractors and clients so we needed to ensure it was easy to navigate and accessible.”
“Our investment in the new website is all part of an online strategy that has also seen us engage with contractors and specifiers via social media on Twitter (@firestonebpUK), and Linkedin (Firestone bpUK) ensuring that our virtual presence online support the sales, customer service and technical support offered by our talented UK and Ireland team”.
East London space transformed with creative hard landscaping
Charcon, the commercial hard landscaping division of Aggregate Industries, has helped transform a once disused area into a multi-use public space in the heart of Bethnal Green, East London.
The Oval, which is just off Hackney Road, was once a hotspot for illegal car parking but thanks to a creative landscape design from London Borough Tower Hamlets, the new space is now fully accessible with safe seating areas, attractive lighting and a versatile stage area, meaning The Oval can now host a wide range of events from performances to markets. Appointed by contractors JB Riney for London Borough Tower Hamlets, Charcon recommended the best hard landscaping products to complete the aesthetics of the street space, whilst ensuring the specified products would be suitable for a multi-use venue.
Gavin Fancote, Specification Manager for Aggregate Industries, comments: “This was a fantastic project to get involved in an we’ve enjoyed seeing the area transform into a striking community space for residents and visitors to enjoy. The project demonstrates how, when specified correctly, creative hard landscaping can really transform an area that not only offers minimum maintenance, but will stand the test of time for years to come.”
A total of 300m2 of Charcon’s
Andover Textured Block Paving in White, Silver Fleck and Light Grey was supplied, as well as 300m2
of Andover Textured Paving in White Grey and White to complete the look. Both products were chosen due to their stylish appeal and exceptional durability.
