Decorative Aggregate - Granite Chips, 3/8"

Decorative aggregate in a 3/8" granite chip size is a premium landscaping and construction material known for its durability and visual appeal. Produced by crushing high-quality granite, these chips feature angular edges that help them lock in place, reducing movement and providing a stable surface. The 3/8" size offers a fine, uniform texture that enhances both aesthetics and functionality.

This specific size and granite composition make the aggregate ideal for a variety of residential and commercial applications, including garden pathways, decorative ground cover, patio borders, and as an accent in landscape beds. The small, angular chips are easy to spread and provide excellent drainage, making them suitable for use around plants and in areas where water runoff is a concern. Pros include low maintenance, resistance to fading, and a clean, modern look. However, the smaller size may be less suitable for heavy load-bearing surfaces or areas requiring significant compaction.
