Rewind to 2008! ⏪
This was the year in which Broadgate Tower reached completion.
Topping out at over 170 metres, the structure is the tallest on its campus, giving lucky workers an enviable view of London from their desks 🏙️.
Thanks to its head-turning looks and considerate sustainable design, Broadgate Tower was also the very worthy winner of the 2009 CTBUH Awards (Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat) 👏, which rewards structures built with the environment and well-being at their heart.
And below its chic exterior? Well, you can find Standard and Hollow Lignacrete blocks, as well as our Lignacite Paint Grade blocks! 😄

🚧 From a redundant gas works to an iconic urban quarter! 🌆
The Fulham Gasworks development project saw a Grade II-listed site transformed into a vibrant mixed-use space by Vulcan Construction.
With 2,000 new homes spread across 15 impressive buildings, some reaching up to 37 storeys high, it has transformed a corner of London. 🏢
The project also features a rejuvenated war memorial and a stunning new urban park.
To support this massive undertaking, we provided durable Lignacite Paint Grade and robust Lignacrete Midi units, which were supplied by the team at @ehsmithbm.

These include The Gherkin, The Shard, The London Olympic Stadium, Canary Wharf, and both Heathrow and Stansted Airports.
