Derbyshire Specialist Aggregates has over 30 years of experience in the industry and we continually research to ensure that we provide the highest quality materials for resin bound installations. We strongly believe that using the correct ratio of resin to aggregates is critical in achieving a lasting, durable surface.
We provide 2 sizes for DALTEX UVR resin and recommend the following mix designs (ie the amount of resin and aggregates to be used).
RECOMMENDED MIX DESIGN FOR Performance DALTEX UVR 7.5kg Resin
3 standard bags 2-5mm, 1 standard bag 1-3mm and 1 mini bag DALTEX Binding Quartz sand. This delivers % resin coverage of 7.1%. Coverage approximately 4.0m2 at 15mm and 3.55m2 at 18mm depth.
Disclaimer: All calculations are approximate and no liability can be accepted for shortfalls or surplus.
We recommend that the minimum depth for driveways is a depth of 15mm. For areas with heavy traffic, we recommend a depth of 18mm.
NB. Don't forget to allow for natural undulations. We recommend you over order by 5%-10% to allow for any variances.
Daltex Yellow 2-5mm is a beautiful, popular natural gravel with golden ambers and bronze. This semi-rounded southern gravel has more colour and contrast than any other aggregate, making it ideal for bonding in any application. A great stand alone product for paths and drives and is one of our best sellers. This product can contain reative iron (see Resin Bonded - How its Done for more information) Also available in 1-4mm. We strongly recommend the use of UVR resin with all DALTEX dried aggregates. Non UVR resin darkens and fades over a very short period of time and has a natural tendency to discolour. It should never be used with this aggregate.
