Drain Rock for Drainage, 1.5" Size, Recycled

1.5" recycled drain rock is a coarse aggregate specifically designed for optimal drainage performance. Produced from reclaimed concrete and stone, this material is screened to a consistent 1.5-inch size, ensuring reliable void spaces that facilitate rapid water flow. The recycled nature of the product not only supports sustainable building practices but also offers a unique, varied color palette.

The larger 1.5" size is ideal for applications where superior drainage is essential, such as French drains, retaining wall backfill, septic systems, and large-scale landscaping projects. Its angular shape helps prevent compaction, maintaining open channels for water movement and reducing the risk of clogging. While not suitable for surfaces requiring compaction or a smooth finish, this drain rock excels in situations where water management and eco-friendly sourcing are priorities.
