Builders Concrete Mix Aggregate (All-in-One 1 Ton Bulk Bag)

The Ultimate Site-Saver: Precision Blended for High-Strength Concrete

 

Eliminate the hassle of measuring separate ratios and save valuable site space with the Builders Concrete Mix Aggregate. Supplied in a heavy-duty 1 Ton Bulk Bag and professionally blended by Wearne Aggregates, this product is the perfect "all-in-one" dry aggregate solution for any construction or DIY project requiring structural concrete.

This mix features a balanced proportion of washed river sand and high-density crushed stone (available in 13mm or 19mm variants). Because it arrives pre-blended, you ensure a consistent strength across your entire pour—whether you are casting a single garden step or a large-scale house foundation.

 

Key Benefits:

• Professionally Pre-Blended: Sourced from Wearne’s SANS-compliant quarries, the ratio of sand to stone is expertly balanced to ensure maximum bonding and durability.

• Site Efficiency: Replaces the need for separate heaps of sand and stone, keeping your site organized and preventing material loss due to wind or rain.

• Heavy-Duty Packaging: The 1 Ton Bulk Bag features reinforced lifting loops for crane-truck (HIAB) offloading and can be reused on-site for rubble collection.

• Consistent Results: Using a pre-mix significantly reduces the risk of "weak spots" in your concrete caused by inconsistent manual batching.

 

Ideal For:

• Structural Foundations: The reliable choice for strip footings and house slabs.
• Driveways & Patio Slabs: Provides a dense, load-bearing base for vehicle and foot traffic.

• Fence & Gate Posts: Quickly mix exactly what you need for secure, rock-solid installations.

• General Repairs: Ideal for contractors who need a clean, manageable way to transport concrete ingredients to residential sites.

Merchant Tips & Usage

• The Cement Ratio: To achieve a standard 25MPa structural concrete mix, we recommend adding 5 to 6 bags (50kg) of Builders 42.5N Cement per 1 Ton bag of this aggregate.

• Water Management: Add water gradually until you reach a "buttery" consistency. Over-watering will significantly reduce the final strength of your concrete.

• Curing Tip: For the strongest results, keep your concrete damp (spray with a light mist or cover with plastic) for at least 7 days after pouring.
