Drain Rock with Filter Attribute

Drain rock with a filter attribute is a specialized aggregate designed to promote effective water filtration and drainage in construction projects. This material typically consists of durable, naturally occurring stones that have been screened to remove fine particles, ensuring consistent performance in filtration applications.

The filter attribute means this drain rock is particularly effective at allowing water to pass through while trapping sediment and debris, making it ideal for use in French drains, septic systems, retaining wall backfill, and other drainage solutions. Its clean, coarse composition helps prevent clogging and maintains long-term permeability. Commonly used in both residential and commercial settings, this material is valued for its reliability in managing water flow and protecting structures from water damage. While it may not compact as tightly as finer aggregates, its superior drainage capabilities make it a preferred choice for filtration and water management projects.
