Details

Quarry Dust is a by-product of the crushing process during quarrying activities, typically produced when stones are crushed into aggregates. It is a fine material that can be used as a partial replacement for sand in various construction applications. Known for its consistency and affordability, quarry dust is an economical alternative that enhances strength and compaction in construction mixes.


 Benefits


  • Cost-Effective – More affordable than natural river sand, reducing overall construction cost.

  • Good Compaction – Fills voids effectively and improves density in concrete and base layers.

  • Increased Strength – Enhances compressive strength when used in concrete mix design.

  • Eco-Friendly – Utilizes quarry by-product, promoting sustainable construction practices.

  • Versatile Use – Suitable for concrete production, paving, road base, and backfilling.

  • Reduced Sand Dependency – Helps conserve natural sand resources.



Applications


  • Concrete Mixes

  • Paving & Interlocking Block Production

  • Road Base & Sub-Base Layers

  • Backfilling & Embankments

  • Landscaping & Pathways

  • Brick & Block Manufacturing
