Christmas comes early for Seb
Congratulations to Sebastian Krzywanski from our production team, who was presented with £500 of gift vouchers by Paul Simpson, our Operations Director, following his participation in our PepTalk competition
Posted on: December 21st 2023 • Posted in: Staff news
Our partnership with PepTalk is part of our wider focus on improving culture, team engagement and wellbeing across our Group. The platform is designed to be fun and engaging, and there are loads of ways to get involved. There is a PepTalk mobile app for on-demand wellness support, community challenges, team check-ins and monthly company-led TeamTalks to support all our teams.
In essence, it is designed to support us in energising our teams, creating a stronger sense of connection and community across the group and helping all employees achieve their wellbeing goals.
Everybody who engaged with PepTalk via a check-in, our photo competition, or just viewing some of the great material available online was entered into a prize draw, and congratulations go to Sebastian (on right of photo), whose name was first out of the hat. He chose to take his prize as John Lewis vouchers and has promised to give his wife half of the winnings. Hopefully, it’s got Seb’s Christmas off to a flying start.

Canvey Island Southern Shoreline Revetment Project
We provided over 1,000 individually reinforced low-carbon precast concrete steps which were manufactured in steel moulds. The units were made using approximately 235m3 of Cemfree Rapid from DB Group Ltd, an alkali-activated cementitious material (AACM) which has 85% lower embodied carbon than 100% OPC (Ordinary Portland Cement) concrete.
