Longcliffe is proud to supply a broad range of limestone aggregates to specialist precast companies. As a member of the UK Cast Stone Association, we are able to get a close understanding of the exacting requirements needed to fulfil the specification of bespoke architect led projects.
Our materials have been used in some very high profile buildings such as the Scottish Parliament Building and are frequently used for architectural precast concrete product manufacturing of facia cladding, structural components, landscaping and decorative gardening objects to name a few.
Coarse aggregate products are crushed and screened to a high quality to meet the demands of this market. Many customers select our aggregates for their white-pale grey colour which can be exposed through surface acid etching revealing the underlying beauty of the aggregates.
Limestone dusts are often used to complement the aggregates in the precast mix design which is particularly important to clients of high-profile projects. Known for their consistent performance in the mix and reliability our Recipe and Dust ranges are a firm choice for companies operating in this field.
Longcliffe can offer graded aggregate sizes typically of the range 5-1mm, 6mm, 4-10mm, 4-20mm, 3mm-dust and 6mm – dust. We have a select range of blended and graded complementary dust products which can be tailored to suit individual requirements. We would be pleased to talk to you about the best grades for your project.
Customers in this sector are becoming more focused on reducing the carbon footprint of their finished products and are frequently including finely milled and dried limestone powder as a cement replacemen, producing a more environmentally sustainable product. We are able to supply Superlon calcium carbonate to BS 7979 specification for inclusion in precast mixes.
All aggregate materials are supplied in 20 and 30 tonne tipper loads nationwide or collected direct from our Derbyshire Quarries. Cement replacement materials are supplied on our own fleet of bulk tankers usually in 30 tonne deliveries.
