Transform your outdoor space with the rich, contemporary tones of our 40mm Plum Slate Bulk Bag. Sourced from premium regional quarries, this highly popular decorative aggregate features flat, angular chippings that provide a sleek, modern finish to any landscaping project. Boasting deep purple and heather-pink undertones, plum slate offers a dynamic visual element for your garden. It displays a soft, subtle matte pastel look when completely dry, but truly comes to life when wet—deepening into an incredibly rich, reflective, and dramatic purple-indigo shade during rainfall.

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.
Achieve a stable, ultra-flat foundation for commercial and residential groundworks with the Travis Perkins Grano Dust Bulk Bag. Screened precisely from 6mm to fine dust, this high-grade crushed granite meets industry standards for paving, artificial turf, and screeding.
Sourced from reputable regional quarries, its dense, angular particles ensure optimal compaction, filling micro-voids for a cohesive, durable surface that reduces settlement, unevenness, and fissures.

Coverage
Approximately 8 - 10 m2 per bulk bag at a 50mm depth when compacted.
Usage
Primarily used for large-scale landscaping and groundwork, it creates a flat, compactable base beneath artificial turf, paving, or tiles to prevent depressions. It is also mixed with cement and water to produce durable granolithic screeds or structural benching in drainage manholes.
Our 40mm Plum Slate Chippings are recycled in the UK from the roofing industry. The deep plum colour offers a striking and bold appearance, adding character to any garden. The flat, angular shape gives a contemporary, stylish finish while helping to retain moisture in borders and planters, yet still allowing water to pass through to support plants and wildlife.Due to green slate being a naturally quarried product, there may be slight variations in formation, size, colour or shape - including a natural red-ish vein.
Our 30-50mm Scottish Cobbles are ideal for decorative landscaping, including water features and rockeries. The larger, rounded stones highlight the soft pastel shades of brown, cream, grey, and pink, creating a visually appealing feature. They catch the light beautifully, whether wet or dry, adding a natural shimmer to your garden. Primarily well-rounded with a smooth texture, the cobbles may vary in shape, and not every stone will be perfectly spherical. As a naturally quarried product, slight variations in size, colour, shape, and formation are to be expected, giving each collection a unique and authentic character.
