5-7mm Aggregate Purple/Red
$57.14 per t
5-7mm Purple/Red aggregate is a cost-effective alternative to standard 5-7mm drainage aggregate, featuring smaller angular fragments measuring between 5 and 7 millimeters in diameter. This crushed stone material delivers the same functional performance as conventional fine drainage aggregate at a reduced cost. The occasional purple or red coloration occurs naturally due to iron oxide and mineral content in the source rock, while maintaining all the essential drainage and construction properties required for various applications.
