The
pioneering firm has boosted its support for good causes,

which supports local and international organisations, chosen
by its staff and close to its three sites.

launched in 2022 as a way of supporting local initiatives with
fun and challenging events championed by staff, suppliers,
customers, and partners. |

Donations of £8,731.40 each were handed out to charities close
to its Burton sites, Staffordshire, Cheshire and Shropshire
Blood Bikes, Burton YMCA, Burton Albion Community
Trust and Scropton Riding for the Disabled. In Lochmaben,
£4701.53 was presented to Veterans Gardens Dumfries, Sports
Drive Unlimited, D&G Canine Rescue Centre and Lockerbie
Wildlife Trust, as well as £6714.44 to the Kenya-based
Footprints Family. |

Albion FC’s Pirelli Stadium in November which added an
impressive and record £20,950 to the total. |

Managing Director
Andrew Hayward said: “It’s an important part of our
company values that we support our local communities,
recognising those who make a real difference to people's
lives. It’s fitting that in our diamond jubilee year; we
boosted this support even further.” |
| Russell Roof Tiles
has achieved 15 years of significant independence and growth,
which has included extensive development across all three of
its sites, two in Burton and one in Scotland. A focus on
people and place has underpinned the company’s growth
strategy. Its team are actively participating with Give4Good,
donating through Give as you Earn, as well as taking part in
events and challenges. |
| 2025 marked an
important year for the company, with £100,000 investment made
into its Burton training facilities and the same amount spent
on new machinery to speed up output to meet continued market
demand |
| Across its whole
portfolio, the firm has invested in modernising and
futureproofing its facilities - boosting capacity, production
speeds, and manufacturing efficiency. |
| The company, a major
producer of concrete roof tiles and accessories, has also
launched a revolutionary new product Bute3®,
which combines the aesthetic appeal of traditional plain tiles
with the efficiency of a modern interlocking design, a result
of five years and £2 million in product development. Bute3® is
now in full production at the manufacturer's new £18.5 million
fully automated line at its Nicholson Way site in Burton on
Trent. |
| Andrew added, “I am
incredibly proud to lead a dedicated team that consistently
innovates and outperforms expectations. We remain focused on
transforming our operations, improving manufacturing
efficiency and delivering better, more sustainable products.
We are looking forward to another decade, and beyond to
continued growth and success.” |
