Mr. Tuckwell, a valued customer and agent of sister company Graham Heath Construction (GHC) got in touch when he started thinking about a new 1000T Grain Store. He took advantage of a promotion they have running on an 80’ x 60’ x 20’ that includes all steelwork, roof, end and side cladding as well as purlins and rainwater goods!
The offer also included 140mm thick concrete panels, manufactured and supplied by us here at Concrete Panel Systems, to a height of 3m, stacked using 3 x 1M high panels. They were fitted to both sides and gable ends.

The GHC team went to visit Mr Tuckwell on his family run Saldon Crabtree Farm in Milton Keynes which has been in operation since 1976. He kindly told them all about his business, why he chose Graham Heath and how we have made a difference.
