7mm Pipe Bedding
The trench standard, 7mm bedding that flows around pipe, supports the barrel evenly and drains for life.
About this product
Pipe bedding has one job: support the pipe uniformly so point loads never form. 7mm single-size screenings do it best, flowing under and around the barrel with next to no compaction effort. And because they're clean, groundwater keeps moving along the trench.
It’s the daily bread of sewer, stormwater and utility crews. For authority work we supply certified WSAA embedment grades (WSA 361 and related specs) with documentation; for everything else, clean 7mm bedding by the truckload, every load digitally docketed.

How much do you need?
