When it comes to building from the ground up, a dependable foundation is everything. At The Builders Supply, our Type 1 Sub Base Loose is a premium-grade aggregate designed to provide exceptional strength and long-lasting performance for a wide range of construction projects.


Product Overview

Type 1 Sub Base is a high-quality granular crushed aggregate that plays a critical role in construction projects. It serves as a reliable subbase material, providing the essential foundation for various hardstanding surfaces. Engineered for stability and durability, it ensures your project starts on solid ground.


Product Features / Specifications

40mm graded down to dust

Made from crushed rock or recycled aggregate

Angular particle shape for superior interlock

Designed for compaction and stability

Suitable for load-bearing applications


Installation & Performance

This subbase material is laid and compacted to create a stable, level layer that forms the perfect platform for the installation of asphalt or concrete. It ensures durability and a strong base for any surface built on top of it, reducing the risk of settlement or movement over time.


Detailed Product Benefits

Made from graded angular material, Type 1 Sub Base consists of 40mm graded to dust, either from crushed rock or recycled aggregate. This carefully controlled grading creates a solid load-bearing layer that is crucial for structural integrity.

The crushed nature of the aggregate ensures a tight interlock between particles, significantly increasing stability and preventing shifting. Once compacted, it forms a dense, reliable base that distributes weight evenly and enhances the lifespan of the finished surface.
