Drainage Materials with VDOT Specification

Drainage materials labeled with the VDOT (Virginia Department of Transportation) specification are high-quality aggregates designed to meet strict state standards for use in infrastructure and construction projects. These materials are typically produced from crushed stone or gravel, processed to ensure consistent gradation, cleanliness, and durability as required by VDOT guidelines.

The VDOT attribute signifies that the drainage aggregate is suitable for critical applications such as road base layers, stormwater management systems, and foundation drainage. This certification ensures reliable performance in terms of load-bearing capacity, filtration, and long-term stability. Common uses include residential and commercial drainage trenches, retaining wall backfill, and underlayment for paved surfaces. The main advantage of VDOT-approved drainage materials is their proven quality and compliance with regulatory standards, making them a trusted choice for both contractors and DIY projects where performance and longevity are essential.
