Norman Emerson
Norman Emerson was founded in 1945 by Norman Emerson senior, who began processing sand from a field adjacent to his home in Ardmore.
From there the extraction of sand moved onto Lough Neagh and today the Group is one of only five companies with a commercial licence and planning permission to extract sand from the Lough.
Since then, the business has developed core competencies in the production and supply of materials and services to the following three market sectors across the island of Ireland, Great Britain and Europe;
- Supply of concrete and aggregate to the construction industry
- Supply of surface solutions to the horticultural and sports industries
- Supply of natural stone decorative aggregates to the D.I.Y and landscaping industries
