Crushed Stone - Black Limestone, Coarse

Black limestone crushed stone with a coarse texture is a durable and versatile construction aggregate. Produced by mechanically crushing limestone, this material features angular, irregularly shaped pieces that interlock well, providing excellent stability and load-bearing capacity. The distinctive black color adds a modern, decorative touch to landscaping and hardscaping projects.

The coarse grade of this crushed stone is ideal for applications where drainage and structural support are priorities. Its larger, angular particles create voids that promote water flow, making it a popular choice for base layers in driveways, walkways, and patios, as well as for drainage solutions and erosion control. The limestone composition ensures long-lasting performance, while the coarse texture may make it less suitable for surfaces requiring a smooth finish. Overall, this material is valued for its strength, drainage properties, and striking appearance in both residential and commercial settings.
