Recycled Aggregate (3″ Minus, Recycled, Blue)
Product Specifications
Applications & Uses
Recycled Aggregate, 3" Minus, Blue
Recycled aggregate in a 3" minus size range is a sustainable construction material produced by processing reclaimed concrete, asphalt, or masonry into usable aggregate. The "recycled" attribute means this product diverts waste from landfills, making it an eco-friendly choice for environmentally conscious projects. Its blue color can add a distinctive visual element to certain applications.
The 3" minus sizing indicates that the material contains pieces up to 3 inches in diameter, along with smaller particles and fines. This gradation provides excellent compaction and stability, making it ideal for use as a sub-base in road construction, parking lots, and large driveways. It is also commonly used for site fill, erosion control, and as a base layer under concrete slabs or pavers. While its recycled nature offers cost savings and sustainability, the presence of fines means it compacts well but may not provide optimal drainage compared to larger, clean aggregates. Overall, this material is valued for its strength, affordability, and positive environmental impact.
