Long Rake Spar has been supplying Exo Supplies with Grantex dried aggregate since 2021. The companies work closely together and regularly conduct business with each other.
Exo Supplies are based in and serve the local communities in the beautiful area of South Wales and the South West of England.
They are unique in the fact that they have their own fleet of lorries so are in total control of delivery times and quality that the products arrive on site in “Only with Exo”.
As a stockist Exo Supplies purchase a whole range of Grantex dried aggregate from Long Rake Spar which includes products such as: –
Brittany Bronze – a natural mix of brown, grey and gold gravel which is suitable for bound systems and is appropriate for medium traffic but not HGVs.
Black Basalt – Is also suited to bound systems and is an angular chipping. It can be subjected to heavy wear from traffic including HGVs.
Golden Quartz – Another natural mix of brown, gold and light grey aggregate suited to medium vehicular traffic (not HGVs) for use in resin bound systems.
Autumn Quartz – This is a cream, gold, brown and buff chipping. Again, suited to bound systems and appropriate for medium traffic (not HGVs).
Red Granite – this aggregate is a brick red chipping. It is durable and can withstand traffic including HGVs. Suitable for bound systems.
Marble – an ever increasingly popular range. Suited for bound and bonded systems for foot traffic areas or areas of occasional domestic light traffic.
These popular products are an important gravel to both companies as demand is high.
Exo Supplies sell quality resin bound aggregates, BBA approved resin, all resin bound ancillaries and other products such as artificial grass and landscape products. Customers include resin bound installers, developers, groundworkers, builders and they supply not only South Wales, but to the South West too.
The busiest periods for them with dried aggregate are unsurprisingly, in the summer months but as they have over 20,000 bags in stock with daily deliveries, availability is not a problem.
Resin bound aggregate from Exo Supplies and Grantex Specialist Aggregates is ideal for domestic and commercial projects and includes driveways and footpaths, as well as larger scale commercial projects. The resin bound materials are durable, strong and cope with all weather conditions. The products for resin bound are permeable and comply to SUDS. The surface just needs washing every so often to keep it clean.
The projects seen in the photos show some of the assignments where their stock has been used and also show the main branch in South Wales.
