Product Details

6F5 Recycled consists of a blend of recycled aggregates, typically graded from 0/80mm. The larger top size allows for the inclusion of more substantial pieces of hardcore, while the well-graded mix ensures effective compaction and stability.

This aggregate is commonly used as a capping layer prior to the installation of Type 1 or Type 2 sub-base, and is also suitable for use in piling mats, haul roads, and as a general fill material where robust support is required.

Due to its recycled nature, 6F5 may contain some contaminants, but these are controlled within permitted limits to maintain consistent performance. Produced to SHW Series 600 Class 6F5 / CC 201 and BS EN 13285 standards, 6F5 Recycled is a compliant, cost-effective solution for demanding groundwork and temporary works.
