Aggregates

To work out how much aggregate you need, simply multiply the area length by it’s width and then multiply by the depth in metres. Use our aggregate calculator to help you order the required amount for your project.

An 800kg bulk bag of aggregate or gravel will typically cover 10m² at a depth of 50mm. Coverage amounts vary between products and it is best to use an aggregate calculator to accurately work out how many bulk bags are required for your job.

Bulk bags are better for smaller scale projects typically requiring less than 5 tonnes of aggregates or where access does not allow for an alternative method.

For larger projects, loose loads will considerably reduce your overall costs, by reducing the price per tonne of the material.

Primary aggregates are extracted directly from quarries and other natural sources, whereas recycled aggregates are produced by processing construction or excavation waste into industry graded reusable materials.
