GRS Bagging Ltd | Decorative & Construction Aggregates | Merchant Guide 20172

Our bagging business is part of the GRS

group of companies which is the largest

independent supplier of Construction

Aggregates in the UK moving in excess

of 9 million tonnes annually.

At GRS Bagging we currently supply

circa 2 million tonnes of bagged

aggregates in to the builders merchants

and DIY retail sectors.

In June 2016 we acquired a further 5

bagging plants giving a network of 18

operating sites and more importantly

the capability to offer a nationwide

supply. Our recent acquisitions have

also considerably increased our

production capacity across the company.

Whilst we have grown and will continue

to grow we are proud to say that our

customer service, quality and local

knowledge are firmly aligned alongside

honesty and integrity within our

business. These are the values that are

at the forefront of the way in which we

operate when securing and maintaining

sustainable business partnerships with

all of our customers now and in the

future.

Thank you for your continued support.

Managing Director, GRS Bagging

Point-of-Sale

Whilst we can supply high resolution

images of all our products we feel there is

no substitute than to be able to show the

customer the actual product in natural light

so they can appreciate the look, feel and size

of the product.

Having these sample boxes containing our

most popular products within the decorative

range in branch also negates having to hold

the full range of products in bulk bags on site

therefore saving in stocking space and cost.

The sample boxes and product are offered

free of charge and can be filled specific to the

customers range and requirements. The box

is intended to be displayed on the counter or

an area which is visible to all customers.

At GRS we understand how important it is

that these construction materials are local

products in order to match colour, texture

and regional requirements. We are extremely

proud of our procurement process and

local knowledge to ensure we are supplying

quality materials bespoke to each specific

area of the UK.

The Construction Aggregate range consists

of Gravel, Ballast, Type 1 and a range of

sands such as Building, Concrete and

Plastering Sand. Certified top soil is also

included in the range to complete any

construction or landscaping project.

The last product in the range is a Self-

binding Path Gravel which is offered as an

economical solution to more permanent

paving substrates like concrete or tarmac

and provides the added benefit of being

porous.

Bespoke delivery requirements can be

catered for with all these products to include

loose loads, direct to sites and crane off load

if required.

We offer a 20mm Moonstone Flint and

Golden Gravel in both 10mm and 20mm

size fractions.

Golden Gravel is a striking blend of browns,

yellows and whites that can really brighten up

your garden. When wet these gravels really

come to life with the yellows and browns

appearing more golden in colour. This gravel

has a real contemporary feel which can add

an elegant look to any project. The Golden

Gravel has both angular shapes and rounded

gravels, with a natural buff finish.

Moonstone Flint consists of a mixture

of different colours with whites and blacks

mixed with grey and browns, the gravel is

predominantly angular with some rounded

pieces. The mix of colours, shapes and the

strength of this gravel make it ideal for a wide

variety of uses including driveways, paths and

decorative landscaping. It is also very striking

when used in water features.

Our slate is supplied in both bulk bags and

mini bags and it is available in 40mm &

20mm sizes.

The dry slates are pastel in appearance and

come to life when wet giving a bright shiny

contemporary look. Slate is very popular

in many gardens, pathways, driveways and

much more. As the slate chippings are quite

flat, it makes it easier to walk on and it is

also more versatile than gravel.

The slate is produced as a by-product from

producing roofing slates and as such is

classed as a recycled material, which means

it is more environmentally friendly than

other quarried stones.

Slates are often used as a mulch on

borders, between plants and gardens to

eliminate weed growth and also keep

moisture retained in the soil during warm

spells.

Applications

GRS Post Mix Concrete is suitable for use in fixing all

types of wooden, metal and concrete posts.

Quality

The mix is kiln dried, pre blended, factory produced

quick setting concrete which hardens in approximately

10mins after water addition, depending on ambient

conditions.

User Instructions

Dig hole to required size for post, half fill hole with water

and place the post in the hole. The material is already

pre mixed and there is no need for mixing, it can simply

be emptied straight from the bag into the hole.

Add the GRS Post Mix Concrete uniformly around the

post until it is above the level of water. If any dry powder

remains visible at this stage, add additional water until

absorbed by the material.

Adjust the post into position and support appropriately

until material set occurs after approximately 10 minutes.

Coverage

The quantity required varies dramatically depending on

the size of the hole and the post thickness. Please see

pack for details.

Cold lay Macadam is the ideal solution for patching driveways, roads

and paths, ready to use straight from the bag, it provides a quick, cost

effective, temporary and permanent repair. Laid straight from the bag

without the need to be heated up, once laid it is instantly traffic-able

causing minimal disruption to vehicles and pedestrians.

Cold lay macadam is extremely simple to use, no previous experience

is required and no specialist tools or equipment are required, the

material is suitable for both base or wearing course.

One bag of cold lay Macadam will cover approximately 0.4m at 30mm

when compacted.

Rail ballast is essential in the construction and maintenance of the UK rail network. The safety performance of all materials used in the trackbed requires them be continually tested for resistance to fragmentation, wear and durability against weathering effects like freezing and thawing. Only Network Rail approved ballast are used by GRS to ensure these exacting standards are achieved.

rail Ballast

Rail Ballast

This is a material critical to travel and

infrastructure through the UK, the crushed

stones you see alongside railway tracks is

known as rail ballast. The purpose of rail

ballast is to hold the cross ties (sleepers) in

place, which in turn hold the rails in place.

Rail ballast serves as a bed for tracks and

provides track stability, drainage, and support

of significant loads carried by trains, rolling

stock and carriages. In addition, it deters

the growth of vegetation and allows for track

maintenance to be performed more easily.

GRS rail ballast is produced from granite

quarried in Leicestershire, this material

is processed and washed to Network Rail

exacting specification and is approved for use

in all UK rail projects.

We can deliver either in bulk bags or loose

throughout the country. For deliveries

outside normal delivery hours and specialist

offloading options please contact the sales

office.

White De-Icing salt

Brown rock salt Winter grit

Keep all pedestrians, motorists and

customers safe this winter by ensuring roads,

footpaths and walkways are treated with salt

or grit when snow or ice is forecast. Brown

rock salt is exceptionally versatile and is ideal

for melting snow from roads, car parks and

pathways. Due to its colour brown rock salt

becomes useful when spreading because it

is visible in the snow. White rock salt is

a purer cleaner alternative to the more

traditional brown rock salt, mostly used in

areas such as offices, car parks, hospitals and

schools. Winter grit is made up of 60% rock

salt and 40% grit this offers the extra benefit

of the grit assisting with tyre traction in ice

and snow.

We offer all these products for nationwide

delivery, our salt and grit range appeals to

both domestic and commercial users.
