Screenings - Fa-21 Limestone

Screenings with the Fa-21 limestone attribute are finely crushed limestone particles, typically produced as a byproduct during the crushing and screening of larger limestone aggregates. The Fa-21 designation indicates a specific gradation and quality standard, ensuring consistent particle size and performance.

This material's fine texture makes it ideal for creating a smooth, compactable base layer. Fa-21 limestone screenings are commonly used under pavers, patios, and walkways, as well as for leveling and filling small voids. Their excellent compaction properties help prevent shifting and settling, making them a preferred choice for both residential and commercial hardscape projects. Additionally, the limestone composition provides natural durability and resistance to weathering. However, because screenings are very fine, they may retain moisture and can become muddy if not properly drained, so they are best used in well-drained applications.
