Screenings with Trial Attribute

Screenings are finely crushed stone byproducts produced during the processing of larger aggregates. The "trial" attribute indicates these screenings are part of a test batch or experimental run, which may result in slight variations in texture or composition compared to standard screenings.

The fine particle size of screenings makes them ideal for creating a smooth, compactable base layer beneath pavers, patios, or walkways. Their small size allows for excellent compaction, reducing voids and providing a stable foundation. However, because these are trial screenings, consistency may vary, so they are best suited for non-structural or temporary applications where uniformity is less critical. Common uses include bedding for paving stones, leveling layers, or as a filler for small voids in landscaping projects.

Pros include ease of compaction and a smooth finish, while potential cons are variable performance due to the trial nature of the material. Contractors and DIYers should consider these factors when selecting screenings for their projects.
