Aggregates & Quarry Products

At Holcim, our hard rock, sand, and gravel quarries supply the essential ingredients for concrete and asphalt - materials that build the foundations of everyday life. From homes and schools to hospitals, railways, and roads, our quarry products help create the infrastructure that keeps communities thriving.

We offer a wide range of aggregates suitable for construction projects and specialised applications. Our reliable products are available nationwide through a leading network of quarries and a range of transportation methods that supply concrete, asphalt and drainage aggregates and river gravels.

We supply commercial landscaping products suitable for urban, residential, traditional, and contemporary environments. With an extensive range of sizes, shades, textures, and finishes, we’re the practical choice for your construction projects.

Roadbase materials play a crucial role in the construction of various projects, from major infrastructure and road duplications to residential subdivisions, commercial developments, and local council projects. They're also essential for car parks, driveways, runways, and sports surfaces.

In road and flexible pavement construction, three key layers of quarry products are typically required:

  • Capping layer: the first foundational layer
  • Sub-base layer: the middle supportive layer
  • Top layer: the final layer beneath the surface seal, often asphalt

These layers ensure durability and stability for long-lasting results.
