The name 'Carillion' was deliberately chosen in 1999 as a neutral name for a collection of companies, each with a strong heritage. The history of Carillion traces to the companies that had become part of the Tarmac Group by the late 1990s: Tarmac Construction, Wimpey Construction, Cubitts and Mitchell Construction.

In 1999 the Tarmac Group demerged into a building materials company ('Tarmac') and a company focused on support services and construction services ('Carillion'). After 1999 Carillion has gone on to acquire further well-known companies: Mowlem (acquired in 2006), Alfred McAlpine (acquired in 2008), Vanbots (acquired in 2008) and Eaga (acquired in 2011).
