We crush the hardcore and use it to make several recycled aggregates that we produce in-house, including our Type 1 iBlend. This process not only provides an eco-friendly, sustainable aggregate, it also provides an alternative pathway for rubble, diverting it from landfill.

TJ purchased Butser Quarry in 2017 following a search for sites in Hampshire that would enable them to supply their own aggregates to the construction industry that they’d already built up strong relationships with via the transport and waste disposal arms of the businesses.
After acquiring the Butser site near Petersfield, TJ spent many months getting the site ready for use and quarrying began in 2018. An excavation plan was put in place to ensure safe, efficient and sustainable quarrying for the years to come.
Butser is a chalk quarry and as the strongest naturally-occuring material in Hampshire, TJ recognised its value and now utilises it in several forms – as crushed chalk, ‘as dug’ chalk, gabion rock chalk and agglime chalk.
The crushed chalk – also referred to as 6F5 rock chalk, is a primary general fill aggregate. It’s most commonly used for capping, laid over terram to raise and level natural ground ready for a Type 1 sub base.
The ‘as dug’ chalk is used as a temporary base or infill for construction projects and works well for these purposes as it is naturally hard. The gabion rock chalk is used within wire baskets as support for soil banks. The agglime part of the chalk is a powder-like material that is spread over agricultural fields to make the ground more fertile.
When we purchased Butser Quarry, it was agreed that we would undertake continuous quarrying of chalk and inert infill, as well as recycling concrete, hardcore and asphalt until 2030. At the end of this term, we will restore the land for agricultural use.
TJ supports the work of the Environment Agency who regularly carry out land analysis of the quarry. TJ is happy to comply to ensure high quality materials are being sourced and provided to our customers.
