Slab-O-Concrete Productions was a British mail order distributor and publisher, founded by Peter Pavement, Dave Hanna, Emma Copsey and Chris Tappenden; operating mostly in Brighton and Hove during the 1990s. Initially selling British small press comics and zines (including Pavement's own comics), Slab-O-Concrete also imported publications from the United States, Australia and Europe.
Slab-o-Concrete was originally based in Sheffield. It moved to Hove in 1995. After intensely increasing its publishing line in the late 1990s (including moving into CDs and prose books), it collapsed in 2001 as policy changes in the book industry caused cash-flow issues.
