We promote the interests of our Members at national and European level in economic, technical, health & safety and environmental policies. We coordinate the EU network and pro-actively identify EU initiatives and policies that are likely to impact on European aggregates producers, keeping members updated on relevant policy developments and ensuring Aggregates Europe – UEPG positions are considered by EU decision makers.
