Supply Chain Solutions for Major Infrastructure

Rail freight is a key pillar of the GRS strategy to reduce vehicle road miles, helping to cut carbon emissions. GRS runs two rail businesses which operate in harmony to ensure that the transportation and handling of bulk materials is carried out as sustainably as possible.

Rail Stone Solutions is dedicated to delivering the UK’s major infrastructure projects with an end-to-end supply solution for moving massive volumes of bulk materials. Specialising in the transportation of aggregates via the rail network, alongside our marine business too, RSS ensures efficient, cost-effective, and sustainable delivery solutions for large-scale projects.

Unrivalled Capacity and Supply Chain Flexibility

RSS offers unparalleled capacity, combining supply agreements with major national aggregate producers and long-standing relationships with a broad network of secondary and recycled material suppliers.

We actively work with local suppliers to strengthen regional sourcing, while our strategic partnership with GB Railfreight (GBRF) gives us unparalleled capability when it comes to supplying the massive volume of aggregate needed for major infrastructure schemes.

By selecting the right material for each stage of a project, making full use of rail and marine transport, and processing waste materials for reuse, RSS achieves the lowest possible carbon footprint across every project.
