What are construction aggregates?

Construction aggregates are granular materials such as crushed stone, sand and gravel used in concrete, asphalt, roads, foundations, drainage and other civil engineering applications. They provide bulk, strength and stability to many construction materials and structures.

What aggregate products does Heidelberg Materials Malaysia supply?

What aggregate products does Heidelberg Materials Malaysia supply?Heidelberg Materials Malaysia supplies graded stone, fine aggregates, quarry sand, crusher run, ballast, fill materials, 20mm aggregates, 10mm chipping, road-base materials and other quarry products for construction and infrastructure applications.

What is crusher run used for?

Crusher run is a mixture of crushed stone and fine particles commonly used where a compacted and stable base is required, such as road sub-bases, access roads and site preparation. The required grading and thickness should follow the relevant project specification.

What is the difference between 10mm and 20mm aggregate?

The main difference is the nominal particle size. Different aggregate sizes can affect concrete mix design, workability and suitability for specific construction applications. The required aggregate size should therefore be selected according to the project's engineering specification.

Quarry sand is a fine aggregate produced through quarrying and crushing processes. Depending on its grading and project requirements, it can be used in concrete and other construction applications.

How do I choose the correct aggregate for my project?

Consider the construction application, required aggregate size, grading, strength, compaction, drainage needs and engineering specifications. For projects with specialised performance requirements, the aggregate should be selected together with the relevant technical or engineering team.

Where can I buy aggregates in Malaysia?

Heidelberg Materials Malaysia operates aggregate facilities across multiple Malaysian regions, including operations in states such as Selangor, Kelantan, Pahang, Perak, Penang, Kedah and Johor. Customers can use Heidelberg Materials Malaysia's plant-location page to identify a suitable nearby facility.

We can also readily supply aggregate materials for projects requiring specialized aggregate performance characteristic.

Our product range is backed by a rigorous quality assurance programe that meets all relevant Malaysia Standards for quarry products.

Aggregates Building Material

If you are in a building, these materials are sheltering you. If you travel by road or rail, it's beneath you.
If you are travelling in a tunnel, these materials surround you.

Aggregates products include:

20mm aggregates
10mm chipping
5mm quarry sand
50mm road base material
block stones etc.

Everyday we rely on aggregates in some form or other. Mixed with cement and water it becomes ready-mix concrete or pre-cast concrete products. Mixed at high temperature with bitumen (an oil product) asphalt is created.

What Aggregates Does Heidelberg Materials Malaysia Supply?

Heidelberg Materials Malaysia supplies a wide range of construction aggregates, including graded crushed stone, 10mm chipping, 20mm aggregates, quarry sand, crusher run, road base material, ballast and fill materials. These aggregates support concrete production, road construction, asphalt, infrastructure and other civil engineering applications across Malaysia.

How Do You Choose the Right Aggregate for a Construction Project?

The correct aggregate depends on the intended application, particle size and grading, required strength, drainage characteristics, compaction needs and the relevant project specification. Concrete production, road bases, asphalt, drainage works and structural fill can require different aggregate properties.

Project teams should therefore select aggregates based on engineering requirements rather than size alone. Heidelberg Materials Malaysia can support customers in identifying suitable quarry materials for their construction requirements.

Aggregate Supply Across Malaysia

Heidelberg Materials Malaysia operates an established quarry and construction-material network across Malaysia. The company operates 15 strategically located quarries producing aggregates, alongside asphalt and ready-mixed concrete operations.

Aggregate and asphalt locations are distributed across regions including Selangor, Negeri Sembilan, Kelantan, Pahang, Terengganu, Perak, Penang, Kedah and Johor, helping support infrastructure and construction projects with locally supplied materials.
