Cowwarr Quarries

Cowwarr Quarries was started in 2008 as a Greenfield site. Setting up the site and getting a work plan together to reduce time spent on future variations was the key to getting the quarry moving quickly. It was easy to see the potential of the resources in a few small excavations of the land.

The quarry has steadily grown starting off slow with small machinery to expanding when the demand increased for the product. Cowwarr Quarries have a clay based quartz gravel product which they supply to two local shires with road making gravel. Being in a very strong dairy farming area, they also supply many of the locals with a screened lane-way material. This product seems to ease the illness of the lane cows with soft hooves in the winter months.

Cowwarr Quarries also supplied a Type A and a Class 4 gravel to Vic Roads contractors on the Princess Highway duplication in our area. Other products in supply include a washed Quartz Garden Stone, a 10mm and 14mm minus washed Quartz Pebble for the decorative concrete market.
