The Company was founded by LG Clugston in 1937 on Humberside as Clugston Cawood. Initially it pioneered the development and use of recycled blast furnace slag from Scunthorpe’s iron and steel plants. This was used in the construction of RAF runways in World War II and led the company into civil engineering, road construction and the building of sea defences on the east coast.
In 1999 the Company acquired Ferro Monk Limited, a company specialising in sewer relining & refurbishment.[1]
