What is Margalla Crush?
The Margalla Hills form a prominent 27-kilometer-long mountainous ridge along the northern boundary of Islamabad. The stone extracted from this range is crushed to produce a high-strength construction aggregate known as Margalla Crush, locally referred to as Margalla Bajri. This crushed limestone and dolomite material is processed by 13 active stone crushing units operating in the New Margalla Stone Crushing Valley, located near Choi village by Khanpur Dam. Strategically positioned opposite Islamabad’s Sector D-12, this valley provides direct access to high-quality aggregate for construction projects across Islamabad, Rawalpindi, and surrounding regions.
The material is extracted, crushed, screened, and graded for multiple uses:
- Concrete mixes (PCC & RCC)
- Road base and sub-base
- Masonry and drainage layers
Why Margalla Bajri is Suggested for House Construction
1. Superior Strength & Load Capacity
Margalla stone is naturally dense and hard. Its crushed particles withstand heavy loads, making it perfect for slabs, beams, columns, and foundations.
2. Angular Shape for Better Bonding
 |
| Margalla Crush Bajari, Best Choice |
Unlike rounded river gravel, Margalla Crush has a rough, angular surface. This provides better cement bonding, increasing both compressive and tensile strength in RCC.
3. Weather Resistance & Low Porosity
Low water absorption reduces cracking and moisture damage. It performs reliably in Pakistan’s hot summers, monsoons, and cold winters.
4. Cost Efficiency & Easy Availability
With 13 plants operating daily, supply is abundant and transport costs are low for Islamabad, Rawalpindi, and nearby Punjab cities.
