Twice the weight, double the stability
For larger marquees, gazebos, cabins, and temporary fencing, you need extra ballast to keep everything safe and stable. 1,000kg concrete marquee weights deliver exactly that.
At twice the weight of the 500kg block, they’re perfect for bigger structures, higher wind loads, and projects where extra holding power is essential. Each block features two M20 lifting loops in the top and a pallet-truck recess in the base, so they’re easy to offload, move, and strap into position.
