Road Planings/Sub Base: The Foundation of Every Great Road

0 Comments

When it comes to building a road that will withstand the test of time and the constant wear and tear of traffic, it all starts beneath the surface with the right sub base material. At Mainland Aggregates, we supply an array of road planings and sub base materials, all crafted to provide the sturdiest of foundations. 

One of our primary offerings is the Road Planings/Scalpings, an economical yet highly efficient material that forms a robust and long-lasting sub base. It's an excellent choice for driveways, car parks, and roads, offering a sustainable option as it's made from crushed tarmac from worn roads which helps reduce waste. 

Our Recycled Sub Base Aggregates collection further emphasises our commitment to sustainability, without compromising on quality. 

Among these offerings, our MOT Type 1 Recycled Sub Base is a standout. It's crafted from reclaimed hardcore and crushed down to size, making it a perfect environmentally friendly choice for highway works, patio sub-bases, driveways, paths and more. 

The 75-40mm Clean Crushed Concrete is another example of our commitment to sustainable solutions. This product is the outcome of crushed concrete and hardcore from construction and demolition waste, producing a cheaper yet reliable alternative to primary limestone. 

The Recycled Rail Track Ballast, made from pure crushed granite drains water effectively, makes for an ideal sub-base material for road building and industrial yard construction. 

As with any construction project, starting with the right foundation is crucial. That's why at Mainland Aggregates, we're committed to providing top-quality road planings and sub base materials. Our selection offers a range of materials suitable for different types of projects, all designed with durability and sustainability in mind. From recycled aggregates to road planings, we have the right sub base for your needs. Trust in our products to lay the groundwork for your next construction project.
