Afrimat is committed to providing quality aggregates products while protecting the environment. Aggregates is primarily based in the commercial quarrying industry. The group’s proprietary quarries – located in seven of South Africa’s provinces and in Namibia – supply the majority of raw material for the remaining Concrete Manufactured Products and Readymix divisions.
The division produces aggregates of a wide variety of sizes and technical specifications with products including stone, gravel and sand primarily for large-scale civil engineering and infrastructure projects. It also provides professional contracted drilling and blasting services.
Afrimat continually ensures that stone reserves are adequate for the long-term needs of the group.

Quality Assurance
The Quality-at-Source strategy of the Aggregates division is founded in the belief that quality assurance is the responsibility of each successive link in the production process. In-process quality control is ensured by constant monitoring and evaluation - a computerised maintenance strategy is employed to ensure absolute reliability and minimum downtime.
A zero-tolerance approach is taken towards defects or deviations from quality standards and specifications.
