Decorative Aggregate (3/8″ Minus, Sable)
Applications & Uses
Decorative Aggregate - Sable, 3/8" Minus
Decorative aggregate in a 3/8" minus size with a sable attribute is a finely crushed stone blend, featuring particles up to 3/8" in diameter with smaller fines included. The "sable" attribute typically refers to a warm, earthy color palette, making this aggregate an attractive choice for visible landscaping and hardscaping applications.
The 3/8" minus sizing ensures excellent compaction and a smooth, stable surface, while the inclusion of fines helps lock the material in place, reducing shifting and washout. This makes it ideal for pathways, patios, garden borders, and as a top layer for decorative ground cover. It is also commonly used in residential and commercial settings where both appearance and functionality are important. The main advantage of this aggregate is its balance of visual appeal and practical performance, though the presence of fines means it may not be suitable for high-drainage applications.
