Types Of Concrete

Know your know your GEN1 concrete from your PAV2. Find out more about the most common types of readymix concrete available in our useful guides below. 

Concrete Types

  1. GEN0 / ST1 Concrete

    GEN0 Concrete (also known as ST1) is a slightly weaker, lightweight concrete that is ideally suited for applications that require little to no structural strength but needs a firm base.
  2. GEN1 / C10 Concrete

    GEN1 / C10 Concrete

    GEN1 (also known as C10) concrete is a versatile, very lightweight mix used by the construction industry for domestic and general non-structural applications.
  3. GEN2 Concrete

    GEN2 Concrete

    GEN2 concrete is the ideal material for domestic flooring if there is no embedded metal in the floor, or if there is no permanent floor finish to be installed afterwards.
  4. Concrete

    PAV1 Concrete

    PAV1 concrete mix (also known as C30), is typically used in pavement construction and lighter outdoor applications.

  5. PAV2 Concrete

    PAV2 concrete (also known as C35) is used for sustained heavy loads, which makes it an ideal concrete mix for slabbing and heavy-duty paving for use by heavy vehicles, in addition to various commercial and industrial applications.

  6. ST2/ C25 Concrete

    ST2 Concrete (aka C25) is a highly versatile concrete mix, used in a variety of applications - including flooring or for mass-fill under footings and foundations.

  7. ST3 Concrete

    ST3 Concrete is ideal for foundations and some domestic applications but is not intended to be used as a wearing surface. A mid-strength ST mix, it is ideally used for things like kerb backing and internal slab work where strength is an important factor.

  8. ST4 Concrete

    ST4 is a versatile concrete mix that can be used for a range of agricultural, industrial and domestic applications. Generally, ST4's water content is higher than some of our other mixes - making it ideal for applications that require fluidity.

  1. RC 28/35 Concrete

    RC 28/35 is a reinforced concrete mix suited to moderately exposed conditions such as floors for farm buildings such as barns and livestock housing.

  2. RC 32/40 Concrete

    RC 32 / 40 Concrete is reinforced concrete suited to both moderately and highly exposed conditions. A strong concrete that is ideally used for agricultural and industrial buildings that require additional reinforced strength.

  3. RC 35/45 Concrete

    RC 35/45 is a very strong, reinforced concrete mix that is best suited to highly demanding, exposed conditions such as farm buildings and outhouses.

  4. FND2 & FNDZ2 Concrete

    FND2 / Z2 is a sulphate resistant concrete, for when you have sulfate soils or are laying on clay.
