Product Summary

4/10 mm Pea Shingle is commonly used as both a construction aggregate and decorative one. Also known as 10mm shingle/gravel, pea shingle/gravel, pipe bedding and drainage aggregate. Landscapers and gardeners will often use this shingle as a decorative aggregate, using it as a "topper" on the borders, beds, planters and pots (and often in the pots and planters to aid drainage too). Colour and shape may vary slightly, as the source material can be either marine dredged or quarried. Colour range can be from a creamy buff through to a golden honey hue.

Product details

4/10 mm Shingle Landscaping Aggregate

Garden designers and landscapers often use shingle to cover borders and bed - this helps protect plants from frost damage, keeps weeds at bay and allows proper drainage to the plant and shrubs.

Planters and Pots

For the same reasons (frost protection, weed control and drainage) shingle is often used in plant pots and planters as a topping over the topsoil or compost layer. 

Shingle is also commonly used in the base of the plant pot or planter to prevent soil clogging the drainage and leaving the plants roots in "standing water".

Driveways

Shingle is regularly used as a driveway surface covering material in domestic applications. It performs well under vehicle compression and provides suitable drainage.

Garden Footpaths

As with driveways, 4/10 mm shingle is also very suitable for garden footpaths. These will generally have less gravel depth than a driveway, so this will increase the coverage.

Decorative Aggregate

This decorative aggregate is a natural product and suitable for a wide variety of landscaping and garden design uses. 

Construction Aggregate

Shingle can be used as the coarse aggregate within concrete mixes (where steel reinforcements are not used) to add cohesion and strength to the concrete. Common applications would be foundation concrete mixes and floor screeds.

This aggregate is supplied in convenient 25kg Poly Bag.
