Mining and Processing – Concreting Sand and Aggregates 

The Coosal’s Sand and Gravel operation, Tapana, Valencia has been referenced by the Environmental Management Authority and the Ministry of Energy and Energy Industries as a model operation for others in the industry to emulate.  

The Sand and Gravel operation equipped with a state-of-the-art Sand and Gravel washing and screening plant, functions without any extraction of water from the watercourses or wastewater cycled into same.  The creation of a pond – a fully functional closed loop water reticulation system – provides the resource to satisfy required processes.  

The process effectively assures that no wastewater and silt emissions are pumped in the surrounding watercourses.  The system’s design has five areas for silt settlement before the water is cycled back to the main pond.  In essence, no water is extracted from the river neither any water / effluent is discharged into the river.

It may be debated, but may be the only sand and gravel operation with a system / process environmentally friendly and non-polluting to the watercourses.  Additionally, land restoration, rehabilitation and re-forestation is aggressively maintained. 

Expansion of the Group is always on the front burner as over time, several plants and operations are strategically placed throughout Trinidad with the adoption of new technology, eco-friendly initiatives for sustainable, safe, faster, cost effective and quality construction.  Diversification continues with the technical expertise available to create a niche for participation in civil engineering contracts.
