QMiX CONCRETE
Lean Mix Concrete Supply
QMiX Concrete supplies lean mix concrete, a low-strength concrete designed primarily for blinding, sub-bases, and non-structural applications. Lean mix concrete is commonly used to provide a clean, stable working surface before structural concrete is placed.
With a reduced cement content compared to standard mixes, lean mix concrete offers a cost-effective solution for projects where structural strength is not required but a firm and level base is essential.
We supply lean mix concrete across Essex, Kent, London, and Hertfordshire, supporting domestic, commercial, and civil engineering projects.
Practical Concrete for Blinding & Sub-Base Preparation
Lean mix concrete is typically used as a base layer to prevent contamination between the ground and structural concrete. It provides a smooth, even surface that improves accuracy during construction and protects reinforcement from contact with soil.
Lean mix is ideal where:
✔ A stable working platform is required
✔ Ground needs to be levelled before structural pours
✔ Reinforcement requires protection from ground contamination
✔ A cost-effective non-structural solution is needed
Its lower cement content makes it easier to place and more economical for large areas.
For a clean, level base before structural concrete is placed, trust QMiX Concrete to supply reliable and cost-effective lean mix concrete for your project.

Frequently Asked Questions
Lean mix concrete is used for non-structural applications such as blinding, sub-bases, and providing a clean working surface before structural concrete is placed.
No. Lean mix concrete is not designed for structural applications and is typically used as a base layer.
Lean mix is often used as a blinding layer beneath foundations, but not as the structural foundation concrete itself.
Lean mix typically has a lower cement content and is used primarily for base preparation, whereas GEN mixes are used for general non-structural construction applications.
