Product Specifications
Applications & Uses
Decorative Aggregate Lava Rock, 1/2" to 1.5"
Decorative aggregate lava rock in a 1/2" to 1.5" size range is a lightweight, porous stone formed from volcanic activity. Its unique texture and natural appearance make it a popular choice for landscaping and architectural projects. The lava rock is typically screened and sorted to ensure consistent sizing, which enhances both its visual appeal and functional performance.
The 1/2" to 1.5" size range offers excellent coverage and stability for ground cover, garden beds, and pathways, while remaining easy to handle and install. This size is large enough to suppress weeds and retain soil moisture, yet small enough to create a refined, finished look. Lava rock's porous nature promotes drainage, making it ideal for use around plants, in xeriscaping, or as a decorative mulch. It is also commonly used in commercial landscapes, rooftop gardens, and as an accent in water features. While lava rock is not suitable for high-traffic surfaces due to its irregular shape, its durability, low maintenance, and striking appearance make it a versatile choice for both residential and commercial applications.
