#1 Stone (Ash)
Applications & Uses
#1 Stone in Ash Color
#1 stone in an ash color is a large, crushed aggregate typically produced from durable natural rock. The ash hue gives it a subtle, neutral appearance, making it suitable for projects where aesthetics are a consideration alongside function.
As one of the largest standard aggregate sizes, #1 stone is ideal for heavy-duty applications where robust support and excellent drainage are required. Its substantial size makes it less likely to compact, which is beneficial for base layers in road construction, erosion control, and large-scale drainage systems. In residential settings, it is often used as a base for driveways, under concrete slabs, or for decorative landscape features where a bold, textured look is desired. The main advantage of this size is its superior load-bearing capacity and drainage, though it is not suitable for areas requiring a smooth or compacted surface.
