A new Vicat aggregate outlet in Colomiers complements the sites in Carbonne (extraction, processing and sales) and Fenouillet (sales) and thus provides customers in the western Toulouse area with better service. It has a wide range of products on offer, and materials can be hauled away as early as 7 am, then as of 1 pm after a lunch break.

Figures: The Vicat group sells more than 700,000 metric tons of aggregate per year in the Midi-Pyrénées region in southernmost France.

 

The new outlet is of strategic importance for customers in western Toulouse where Vicat now brings three of its businesses together: its Concrete and Aggregate businesses are on the same site, and subsidiary VPI (finishing products for the building industry) is just down the street.
