Our range of recycled aggregates

Top Quality Recycled Aggregate Suppliers

Recycled aggregates are processed from previously used inorganic construction materials. They offer similar technical specifications to quarried aggregates but are generally cheaper and more environmentally friendly. Unlike quarried aggregates, which require resource-intensive quarrying, recycled aggregates are sourced from materials that would otherwise occupy landfill space. This process eliminates the need for mining, conserves resources, and reduces costs for consumers. In the UK, producers adhere to a Quality Protocol by WRAP to ensure the production of clean and safe recycled aggregates. The raw materials include concrete, stone, mortar, brick, and tarmac.


Recycled aggregates are increasingly used to meet sustainable building standards like BREEAM, which are working towards reduced environmental impact. This growing demand supports advancements in recycling technologies and aligns with the UK government’s targets for waste reduction in construction, making recycled aggregates a cornerstone of the nation's push toward eco-friendly infrastructure.
