Block Aid - Marquee Weights
Our marquee weights come in a number of sizes (see table for all) from 25kg-1000kg, so no matter how large or small your structure may be, from big tops to garden gazebos, we have a suitable weight for you.
The standard marquee weight is 500kg and dimensions of 800 x 460 x 680mm.
We can provide covers with straps and ratchets for securing the blocks to the marquee.
Our marquee weights don't only act as ballast for preventing damage from strong winds, they can advertise your company or events.
The standard colour for the covers and straps is white but we can provide other colours or even printed covers with company logos or messages etc. on consultation.
The blocks provide an alternative to guy lines and the trip risk they present, they also allow marquees to be erected on hard standing surfaces and protected sites where stakes cannot be used.
Our blocks are also a greener alternative to water ballasts. The water used in the construction process is 100% recycled, along with 100% secondary sourced aggregates and 100% recycled steel reinforcements.

Below are our new 20Kg and 25kg weights, ideal for a little added stability and structural sturdiness when used in conjunction with our larger weights or even on their own for smaller marquees, market-stalls and anything else you want to weigh down.
We have also developed a specially-made pump-truck for our marquee weights, allowing them to be moved around with ease, even when inside.
