Leftover stone from dimensional stone quarrying

Leftover stone can be utilized in many ways for a variety of purposes (e.g. water and environmental construction and earth construction) after processing, treatment and productization.

Leftover stone suits water construction particularly well because it is produced in several different block sizes and does not contain substances harmful or damaging to nature or the environment. The properties and cleanness of the rock are examined at the initial stage of the quarry operations.

Water construction projects includes, for example, breakwaters, river embankments, protective rock grading for flood areas, water treatment dams, harbor structures and docks.

Product development of crushed stone and environmental is continuously going on.

Examples of environmental construction projects include road embankments, sound walls, and decorations in traffic dividers, playgrounds and yard areas.

Crushed stone products are also used for the foundations of buildings, as underlayment material and surface material for roads and as raw material and surfacing for precast concrete.
