Crushed Stone Cr-1, Black

Crushed Stone with a Cr-1 attribute in a striking black color is a high-quality aggregate produced by mechanically crushing durable rock into angular fragments. The Cr-1 designation typically refers to a well-graded blend of stone and fines, resulting in a compactable material that offers excellent load-bearing properties and stability.

The black coloration adds a modern, decorative touch, making this material suitable for both functional and aesthetic applications. Crushed Stone Cr-1 is commonly used for base layers in driveways, parking lots, and road construction, as well as for walkways and patios where a firm, stable foundation is essential. Its blend of stone sizes and fines ensures superior compaction, reducing voids and minimizing shifting over time. While its compactability is a major advantage for structural projects, the presence of fines means it is less suitable for drainage applications compared to more open-graded aggregates.
