Delivering reliable sub-base and pathway materials for consistent construction performance.

Benedict is the trusted supplier of Compactable Sandstone from our Sandy Point and Appin Sands quarries, helping deliver major civil, infrastructure and landscaping projects throughout New South Wales.

Our crushed sandstone provides a reliable solution for sub-base preparation and pathway construction, helping customers achieve durable, long lasting results.

Project Specific Compactable Materials

These products are key in our compactable range and are designed to meet the unique requirements of specialised projects. Project Specific Compactable Materials are often used in applications such as R57 Reinforced Soil Walls, where quality, performance, and compliance are critical. To ensure they meet project requirements, these specialty materials undergo strict independent testing before being supplied to customers.

Specified sub-base materials

For projects requiring compliance with recognised road authority standards, Benedict offers Specified sub-base materials tested to industry requirements, including 50mm and 75mm Crushed Sandstone meeting RMS 3071 specifications.

Non-specified sub-base

While these materials are not certified to a particular standard, Non-specified sub-base products undergo regular external testing for PSA and CBR to provide customers with reliable performance data.  Our sandstone sub-base products are tested for quality and proven in the field, delivering durable and dependable foundations for residential, construction and infrastructure projects

“Our 50mm and 75mm Crushed Sandstone offers a natural, cost-effective sub-base solution with excellent compaction, dependable performance, and reliable availability,” says Dean Byrne, Integrated Sales & Solutions Manager. “Ideal for hard stand areas, roads, access tracks, and fire trails, it creates a stable foundation that supports long term project success. Our bulk supply capabilities help keep projects moving while meeting quality standards.”
