aggregate pieces that are more than 99.9% recycled polystyrene.

This polystyrene, that would


have otherwise been destined for a landfill, is instead gathered, melted, mixed, reformulated and
expanded to create low density aggregates that maintain high strength properties while under
compressive loads. Such geosynthetic aggregates replace conventional gravel while
simultaneously increasing porosity, increasing hydraulic conductivity and eliminating the fine dust
"fines" inherent to gravel aggregates which otherwise serve to clog and disrupt the operation of
many drainage applications.

Recycled aggregate production in the UK[edit]


Recycled aggregate in the UK is defined as aggregate resulting from the processing of inorganic
material previously used in construction. To ensure the aggregate is inert, it is manufactured from
material tested and characterised under European Waste Codes.[6]
In 2008, 210 million tonnes of aggregate were produced in the UK of which 67 million tonnes was
recycled product, according to the Quarry Products Association (QPA).[7] The Waste and
Resource Action Programme (WRAP)[8] has produced a Quality Protocol for the regulated
production of recycled aggregates.[9] The recycled aggregate is delivered with documentation that
states it has been produced using a quality assured system for the manufacturing process to
ensure an aggregate that conforms to the relevant European standards. [10]
