​Useful Information

  • An evenly graded mixture which interlocks  when compacted to ensure minimal voids and provide excellent load bearing qualities

  • Should be non-frost susceptible when used within 450mm of the finished surface, and has a maximum permitted top size of 63mm, graded down to dust

  • Unlike primary materials a recycled product will have an allowed level of contamination by weight, this can be wood, metal, plastic, ceramic, glass etc. Due to this fact we must make sure that recycled material is not the finished surface

  • If not conditioned with water the material will not compact properly
