Our Type 1 aggregate bulk bags are carefully sourced and graded to meet industry standards, ensuring excellent compaction, stability, and drainage. When compacted correctly, MOT Type 1 forms a firm, load-bearing surface perfect for supporting paving, concrete, tarmac, and other construction materials.

What is MOT Type 1?

MOT Type 1 aggregate is a crushed stone mixture containing particles ranging from dust to 40mm. This carefully graded composition allows the material to compact tightly, creating a strong and stable base layer.

It is widely used in both domestic and commercial construction projects throughout Bishop’s Stortford and Hertfordshire due to its durability and reliability.

Typical materials used in Type 1 include:

• Crushed limestone

• Granite

• Recycled concrete and hardcore (in some blends)

The fine particles fill the gaps between larger stones, creating a solid, compacted surface that prevents movement and settling over time.
