Mineral Products Association

The Mineral Products Association (MPA) is the industry trade association for the aggregates, asphalt, cement, concrete, dimension stone, lime, mortar and industrial sand industries. Our membership spans 16 product groups and comprises the majority of independent SME quarrying companies, as well as the major international and global companies with operations in the UK, making us the sectoral voice for mineral products.

Driving Change…Raising Standards…Improving Perceptions, MPA represents the interests of its members and the wider industry with all levels of Government and an enormous range of other stakeholders at European, national, regional and county levels, including government departments, local authorities, professional trade bodies, conservation organisations, educational institutions, engineering and architectural practices. Our regional structure, based on UK economic and planning regions, enables us to enter into dialogue with all interested parties.

Expertise and support to members spans health & safety, planning and resourcing, environmental, regulatory and technical and standards issues at UK and European levels, transport, safeguarding and developing markets plus market information, public affairs and communication, carbon reduction, biodiversity and restoration and much more. The Concrete Centre provides material, design and construction guidance to enable all those involved in the design, use and performance of concrete and masonry to realise the potential of these materials.
