Application

Garden borders, mulch layers, driveways, paths, ECCOgravel stabilisation systems, drainage layers, paving separation zones, decorative ground cover, landscape detailing, and low‑maintenance surfacing.

Description

Natural stone aggregates and gravels are mechanically crushed rock fragments produced from larger quarried stone masses. The crushing process generates angular particles with high interlock capability and variable grading depending on the specified size range.

Material composition varies by geological source and may include granites, sandstones, limestones, basalts or metamorphic stones. Particle shape, density and mineralogy influence drainage behaviour, stability, colouration and suitability for surface treatments.

Aggregates can be used as loose mulch, structural fill, paving separation, or within stabilisation systems such as cellular confinement grids. Colour characteristics remain stable but may darken when wet due to mineral absorption and surface moisture.

Features and benefits:

  • Angular particle geometry improves compaction and surface stability.
  • Multiple mineral types allow broad colour variation for visual integration.
  • Permeable structure supports drainage and reduces surface runoff.
  • Suitable for use in gravel stabilisation systems due to interlocking behaviour.
  • Provides low‑maintenance ground coverage for borders and planting areas.
  • Can be used to visually break up hard landscaping surfaces.
  • Durable material resist weathering and long‑term surface degradation.
  • Variable grading supports both decorative and structural applications.
  • Compatible with driveways, paths and pedestrian surfaces.
  • Natural mineral surfaces provide consistent, non‑synthetic appearance.
