AGGREGATE INDUSTRY

Aggregates are building materials used in construction, including sand, gravel, crushed stone, and recycled concrete. Aggregates are mined and either used in their raw form (for example, as foundations) or serve as composite materials in the production of concrete and asphalt. End markets for aggregates include private residential construction, commercial construction, and publicly funded infrastructure projects, with the latter consuming the most aggregates, usually for use in highway and road construction.
Aggregates are used as base materials in foundations, or as components in the production of concrete and asphalt. They are are used in road construction and are clearly essential not only as a foundation for the roadbed, but also go into the cement that makes the road itself. When aggregates are used, they are an important part of the construction process.

Quarries are obviously essential to aggregates producers’ business; without quarries and the reserves they provide, there is no source of raw materials. Aggregates are usually shipped from quarries or production areas close to their end market. This is because even a relatively small amount of aggregates, in terms of value, can weigh several tons. Because most aggregates are transported by truck, transport over 50 miles is thus cost-prohibitive and infeasible. However, this can be circumvented to an extent by alternative modes of transport, specifically by rail or by water. For those aggregate producers with proper facilities, rail transportation provides a cheaper alternative to shipments by truck. Transport by barge is even cheaper, but is only available to those producers with access to coastal waterways.

Aggregates are not just for construction, a vast array of other products, many of which are taken for granted, are manufactured using materials derived from quarrying. These include: paper, glass, cosmetics and toothpaste to name but a few. Aggregates are also used in agriculture, food manufacture and water & sewage purification.
