Rip Rap Gravel in Buffalo Brown and Brown

Rip Rap gravel in Buffalo Brown and Brown is a robust, natural stone material commonly used for erosion control and heavy-duty landscaping. Produced by quarrying and breaking down larger rocks, this gravel features irregular, angular pieces that interlock for superior stability. The distinctive Buffalo Brown and Brown hues offer a natural, earthy appearance that blends seamlessly with outdoor environments.

The gravel attribute of Rip Rap means it is especially effective at dissipating water energy, making it ideal for shoreline protection, slope stabilization, and drainage channels. Its substantial size and angularity prevent displacement, ensuring long-lasting performance in high-impact areas. While its coarse texture makes it less suitable for walkways or decorative garden beds, Rip Rap gravel excels in both residential and commercial applications where durability and erosion resistance are priorities.
