Aggregates and concrete
Compare recycled aggregates, lower-carbon concrete, binders, cements, sand, gravel, and lime concrete from UK suppliers with verified product data.
Concrete and aggregate impacts are shaped by binder content, strength and durability requirements, recycled constituents, batching, transport, and the volume used. A lower headline carbon value is only meaningful when products deliver an equivalent function and use a comparable declared unit and life-cycle boundary.

What to compare before specifying
Required performance
Define strength, exposure, workability, finish, curing, durability, and structural requirements before comparing binders or recycled content.
Comparable carbon evidence
Check declared unit, strength class, product scope, life-cycle modules, data age, verification, and whether transport or site impacts are included.
Local supply and logistics
Batching distance, delivery constraints, minimum loads, return concrete, aggregate moisture, programme, and quality control can materially affect the project outcome.
Frequently asked questions
What makes concrete lower carbon?
Common strategies include reducing clinker content, using suitable supplementary materials, optimising mix design, avoiding unnecessary strength, incorporating recycled aggregate where appropriate, and sourcing efficiently. Performance and verified product data remain essential.
Can concrete products be compared using kgCO2e per cubic metre?
Only when the products provide a comparable function and the figures use compatible scopes, declared units, strength or performance assumptions, and verification. A smaller number is not automatically a better project choice.
Is recycled aggregate suitable for every application?
No. Suitability depends on grading, contamination, water absorption, strength, standards, exposure, intended use, and project specifications. Confirm the evidence and requirements for the particular application.
