Recycled Aggregate Base Course - Class 2

Recycled Aggregate Base Course in a Class 2 size range is a sustainable construction material made by processing reclaimed concrete, asphalt, and other aggregates into a durable, compactable base. This material meets Class 2 specifications, ensuring a well-graded mix of particle sizes for optimal compaction and load-bearing performance.

The recycled attribute not only diverts waste from landfills but also provides a cost-effective alternative to virgin aggregates without sacrificing strength or stability. Class 2 sizing offers excellent compaction, making it ideal for use under roadways, driveways, parking lots, and concrete slabs. It is also commonly used as a subbase for walkways, patios, and other hardscape projects. While recycled aggregate may contain minor traces of other materials, it consistently delivers reliable performance for both residential and commercial applications, with the added benefit of supporting green building practices.
