Cracker Dust

In regards to creating a firm foundation for any future construction or landscape projects, Cracker Dust will certainly do the trick as it has been used time and time again by experts and DIYers in the city of Perth. Also referred to as blue metal dust and quarry dust, this finely crushed rock produces some great results when it comes to functionality, versatility, and affordability.

What is Cracker Dust?

Cracker Dust is made by producing dust from the crushing of big rocks in quarries. It forms an amalgamation of fine particles and small aggregates that make it very compactable. The uniformity of its particle size makes it unique, compared to other types, which have better binding ability once it is laid and compacted.

Why Choose Cracker Dust?

The main feature of Cracker Dust is its excellent compaction properties. If applied properly, it creates a very dense, strong, and stable structure, with little to no movement and settlement over time. It makes it a perfect choice for sub-base material for the following uses:

• Driveways - Provides a solid foundation for vehicles
• Paths and Patios - Creates a flat and easy-to-handle surface
• Under Pavers - Forms a strong and even base layer that won't shift
• Synthetic Turf - Serves as a perfect base layer for artificial lawns
• Concrete Slabs - Ensures the perfect sub-base support for concrete pouring
• Gap filling and stabilization - Helps fill gaps under the pavers and stabilize loose materials

Performance You Can Count On

Aside from its compaction capabilities, another quality that sets Cracker Dust apart is its excellent drainage ability, which allows for effective dispersion of water without affecting the base structure. As such, Cracker Dust is ideal for outdoor installations where it will be subjected to Perth weather throughout the year without fail.

In addition to its easy-to-compact nature, Cracker Dust has many other qualities which make it ideal for base construction. Amongst its many qualities is that of ease of use. This is because it can easily be distributed, leveled and compacted using normal equipment.

A Cost-Effective Solution for Any Project
