Ecoblend, developed by Day Group, emerges as a pioneering brand leading the charge towards sustainable aggregates in construction projects. Currently distributed by Day Aggregates and GRS Roadstone, Ecoblend is set to transform materials resourcing in the construction industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With a focus on eco-conscious practices, Ecoblend delivers customers the opportunity to utilise sustainable manufactured aggregates, spearheading a shift towards environmentally responsible materials. The range includes crushed concrete, crushed asphalt, and a blended aggregate incorporating incinerator bottom ash (IBA).<\/p>\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

At its core, Ecoblend champions sustainability through its flagship product, Ecoblend MA. Designed for a multitude of applications, including sub-base construction and road capping, Ecoblend MA represents a modern, sustainable aggregate for Type 1 and 6F5 applications. Blending refined IBA aggregate with natural crushed stone achieves high performance at a lower cost while reducing environmental impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This advanced manufacturing process not only diverts waste from landfills but also significantly cuts CO2<\/sub> emissions. Every tonne of Ecoblend MA purchased saves 231 black bin bags of waste from landfills [1]<\/sup> and reduces the need to quarry finite primary aggregate, thus conserving our precious natural resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Embodying its commitment to sustainability, the Ecoblend brand identity visually reinforces its focus on repurposing by-products from demolition, construction, and municipal waste through its trademark, representing supply continuity, the blending process, and the journey towards a circular economy. Complemented by the strapline \u201cSustainable aggregates for the built environment,\u201d Ecoblend is committed to providing environmentally considerate aggregate solutions for the construction industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

James Day, Managing Director of Day Group, emphasises:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEcoblend epitomises our dedication to catalysing change and embracing sustainability in aggregates. As the industry shifts towards environmentally responsible materials, Ecoblend leads the way, inspiring stakeholders to adopt sustainable solutions.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To mark its launch, Ecoblend initiates an extensive awareness campaign and unveils a dedicated website offering comprehensive guidance and material calculation tools for customers in the building and construction industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Visit www.ecoblend.co.uk<\/a> for more information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

[1]<\/sup> One tonne of Ecoblend MA is equivalent to three tonnes of municipal waste. Figures are based on waste having an average density of 0.2 kg\/l and black bin bags having an average capacity of 60 litres per bag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
