Aggregate · 08.11
Large, solid recycled concrete for roads, foundations, sub-base layers and retaining walls. Tough and free draining.
Quick answer
40–70mm Recycled Concrete is a large, solid recycled aggregate that stands up to heavy wear and drains freely, with a blue-grey colour that gives contrast in the garden. It goes into roads, foundations, sub-base layers, retaining walls, garden beds and feature areas. Plan on a layer about 100mm deep or more.

Why choose it
Good jobs for it
Made from premium recycled concrete, this is an eco-friendly alternative to newly quarried material that cuts waste and saves natural resources. Being recycled takes nothing away from its strength: it lasts and stands up to weather and heavy use. Choosing recycled material keeps resources in a closed loop, which makes it a great pick for landscapers who care about their footprint.
