Screenings (Dry, Stone)
Applications & Uses
Screenings (Dry, Stone) are finely crushed stone particles, typically produced as a byproduct during the crushing and screening of larger aggregates. These dry stone screenings are free from excess moisture, making them easy to handle and spread for a variety of construction and landscaping applications.
The fine texture of screenings allows for excellent compaction, creating a stable, level base for pavers, patios, and walkways. Their dry attribute ensures minimal clumping and easy blending with other materials, which is especially beneficial for projects requiring precise grading or a smooth finish. Screenings are also commonly used as a setting bed for flagstone or as a filler between larger stones, providing stability and reducing weed growth.
While screenings offer superior compaction and a clean, finished look, they may not be ideal for drainage applications due to their small particle size. However, their affordability and versatility make them a popular choice for both residential and commercial projects where a solid, even surface is required.
