Decorative Aggregate (Small, Shells)

Decorative Aggregate with Small Shells

Decorative aggregate featuring small shells is a unique landscaping material composed of naturally occurring or reclaimed shell fragments, carefully screened to a small size range. The shells are typically sourced from coastal regions and processed to remove impurities, resulting in a clean, attractive aggregate ideal for enhancing outdoor spaces.

The small size of the shell pieces provides a smooth, even surface that is comfortable underfoot and easy to spread, making it especially suitable for garden paths, patios, and walkways. The shell attribute adds a distinctive coastal aesthetic and can help reflect light, brightening shaded areas. This material is also popular for use in driveways, planter beds, and as a decorative mulch, where it helps retain soil moisture and suppress weeds. While small shell aggregate offers excellent drainage and a unique look, it may be less suitable for high-traffic areas where compaction is required, as the shells do not lock together as tightly as stone. Overall, it's a versatile, low-maintenance choice for both residential and commercial landscaping projects seeking a natural, decorative touch.
