What Are Aggregates?

In the realm of construction, aggregates serve as the fundamental elements that lay the groundwork for durable and resilient structures. At Ready Mixed Concrete, we recognize the pivotal role aggregates play in the success of your project, and we are dedicated to providing a diverse range of high-quality options to meet your unique needs.

Crushed Stone: Crushed stone, a cornerstone of construction, is produced by mechanically crushing large rocks into fragments of varying sizes. This versatile material comes in an array of grades, making it suitable for a wide spectrum of applications. From providing stability as a base material for roads and foundations to enhancing drainage in landscaping projects, crushed stone stands as a testament to its adaptability and durability.

Gravel: Gravel, composed of naturally occurring small stones, adds both functionality and aesthetic appeal to construction projects. Its permeable nature makes it an excellent choice for drainage systems, preventing water accumulation. Gravel is also widely used in landscaping, pathways, and as a decorative element due to its natural texture and color variations.

Sand: Sand, a finely granulated aggregate, plays a crucial role in concrete and mortar mixtures. Its diverse applications include providing structural strength, improving workability, and enhancing the finish of surfaces. From masonry to plastering, sand is an indispensable component in construction, contributing to the overall cohesiveness and stability of the final product.

Recycled Materials: Embracing sustainability, Ready Mixed Concrete is proud to offer aggregates made from recycled materials. This eco-friendly approach not only reduces the demand for natural resources but also minimizes waste. Recycled aggregates, including crushed concrete and reclaimed asphalt, maintain the same structural integrity as traditional materials while contributing to a greener, more sustainable construction industry.

In every category, our commitment to delivering aggregates of the highest quality remains unwavering. By understanding the unique properties and applications of crushed stone, gravel, sand, and recycled materials, Ready Mixed Concrete ensures that your project receives the precise mix of aggregates required for lasting success.
