Decorative Aggregate (1/2″ Minus, Brown)
Applications & Uses
Decorative Aggregate, 1/2" Minus, Brown
Decorative aggregate in a 1/2" minus size range is a versatile, visually appealing material ideal for landscaping and hardscaping projects. This aggregate consists of crushed stone or gravel, screened so that the largest pieces are no bigger than 1/2 inch, with smaller particles and fines included. The natural brown color adds warmth and blends seamlessly with outdoor environments, making it a popular choice for both residential and commercial settings.
The 1/2" minus sizing allows for excellent compaction, creating stable surfaces for pathways, patios, and garden beds while minimizing voids and reducing weed growth. The fine particles help lock the aggregate in place, making it less likely to shift underfoot-an advantage for walkways and high-traffic areas. This material is also commonly used as a decorative ground cover, in xeriscaping, or as a base layer beneath pavers. While the fines improve stability, they can reduce drainage compared to larger, clean aggregates, so it's best used where water runoff is not a primary concern.
