Decorative Aggregate in a 1/4" to 1/2" Size Range

Decorative aggregate in a 1/4" to 1/2" size range is a versatile construction material commonly used for both aesthetic and functional purposes. Produced by crushing and screening natural stone, this aggregate features a uniform, small-to-medium particle size that enhances visual appeal while providing practical benefits.

The 1/4" to 1/2" size range strikes a balance between fine and coarse aggregates, making it ideal for applications where both appearance and performance matter. This size is less likely to shift underfoot compared to finer gravels, yet still offers good drainage properties. Typical uses include garden pathways, landscape beds, decorative ground cover, and as a top layer for driveways or patios. Its manageable size makes it easy to spread and maintain, while also reducing the risk of tracking or compaction issues. This aggregate is a popular choice for both residential and commercial landscaping projects seeking a clean, finished look with minimal maintenance.
