Screenings (Decomposed Granite)
Applications & Uses
Screenings - Decomposed Granite
Screenings made from decomposed granite are a finely crushed aggregate produced by breaking down granite rock into small, angular particles. This material is prized for its natural appearance and excellent compaction properties, making it a popular choice for both residential and commercial landscaping projects.
The decomposed granite attribute means these screenings have a gritty texture and pack tightly, creating a stable, permeable surface that resists erosion. This makes them ideal for pathways, patios, garden trails, and as a base layer beneath pavers or flagstone. Their natural look blends seamlessly with outdoor environments, while the fine particle size ensures a smooth, walkable finish. Pros include easy installation, good drainage, and low maintenance. However, decomposed granite screenings can be less suitable for high-traffic driveways or areas requiring significant load-bearing capacity, as they may shift under heavy use.
