Roadbase Materials

Roadbase material are an integral part of the construction of road projects including, major infrastructure, road duplications, residential sub-divisions, commercial developments and local councils/shires. The construction process of a road or flexible pavement requires typically three layers of quarrying products:

• Capping layer - this layer is the first layer to be placed.
• Sub base layer - this is the middle supportive layer.
• Top layer - this layer is the top layer under the seal (generally asphalt).

These products are generally available from all of the Holcim operations throughout its 80 Australian quarrying locations. These operations have varying capabilities dependant on the operational output, market demand and expectation. These products are linked to precise specifications at either a local, state or federal level.

Please contact your local quarrying operation for further details.
