Road Base (1″, Recycled, Concrete)
Applications & Uses
Recycled Concrete Road Base, 1" Size
Recycled concrete road base in a 1" size range is a sustainable aggregate produced by crushing and screening reclaimed concrete from demolition projects. This material offers a durable, cost-effective alternative to virgin aggregates, while also diverting waste from landfills.
The 1" size provides an optimal balance between compaction and drainage, making it ideal for creating stable sub-bases in roadways, driveways, parking lots, and walkways. Its recycled nature means it may contain a blend of concrete, small amounts of brick, or stone, which enhances interlocking and load-bearing capacity. Commonly used in both residential and commercial construction, this road base is valued for its environmental benefits, affordability, and reliable performance. However, as a recycled product, it may have a slightly varied appearance and texture compared to quarried stone, but it consistently meets engineering standards for base materials.
