Usage
Primarily used for decorative horticultural landscaping, 40mm slate's flat, interlocking surface makes it ideal for footpaths and walkways, offering a smoother, more navigable surface than rounded gravel. It is also commonly used for garden bed edging, mulching (with ground membrane to boost moisture retention and suppress weeds), building rockeries, and defining paved patios.
