BS 8601-Compliant Subsoils for Landscaping, Construction & Restoration 

Subsoil is the layer of earth found directly beneath the topsoil. It is composed mainly of minerals, leached materials (such as iron and aluminium compounds), clay, and minimal organic content. While it plays a less active biological role than topsoil, subsoil is crucial for drainage, root support and soil structure stability. 

At RedRox, we supply a variety of subsoils for use in land restoration, landscaping, agricultural preparation, and compliance-driven construction works. All our subsoil products are available in bulk or in bulk bags, with nationwide delivery across England, Scotland, and Wales.
