Decorative Aggregate - Washed, Shell

Decorative aggregate with a washed, shell attribute is a premium landscaping material composed primarily of natural shell fragments that have been thoroughly cleaned to remove dust, dirt, and organic debris. The washing process enhances the aggregate's visual appeal, ensuring a bright, clean finish that highlights the unique textures and colors of the shells.

The washed, shell composition makes this aggregate ideal for a variety of residential and commercial applications, including garden beds, pathways, patios, and as a top dressing for planters. Its clean, smooth surface is gentle underfoot, making it suitable for areas with frequent foot traffic. Additionally, the natural shell material provides excellent drainage, helping to prevent water accumulation and soil compaction. While the shells offer a striking decorative effect, they may be less suitable for high-traffic driveways or areas requiring heavy compaction. Overall, this washed, shell decorative aggregate is perfect for projects seeking a coastal or natural aesthetic with low maintenance requirements.
