10mm Aggregate Purple/ Red
$57.14 per t
10mm Purple/Red aggregate is a cost-effective alternative to standard 10mm drainage aggregate, consisting of angular crushed stone fragments measuring approximately 10 millimeters in diameter. This medium-sized aggregate provides excellent drainage and structural properties while offering significant cost savings compared to conventional materials. The occasional purple or red coloration results from natural iron oxide and mineral content in the source rock, delivering the same performance characteristics as standard 10mm aggregate at a more economical price point.

Popular Use Cases
-
Medium Drainage Systems – Ideal for drainage applications requiring finer flow control than 20mm aggregate, including garden drainage and surface water management
-
Concrete Aggregate – Medium-grade aggregate for concrete mixes in general construction, providing good workability and strength
-
Pipe Bedding & Surround – Suitable bedding material for medium-diameter pipes where 20mm aggregate may be too coarse
-
Decorative Ground Cover – Functional ground cover for areas requiring drainage with a more refined appearance than larger aggregates
-
Filter Layers – Transition material in drainage systems between fine and coarse aggregates to prevent material migration
