They are also used to create visually appealing surfaces in landscaping and decorative applications, such as pathways, driveways, and garden features.

Ideal for resin bound applications, dried aggregates offer high-performance solutions for permeable paving systems, combining functionality with an aesthetic finish.

In aquariums and terrariums, these aggregates serve as a substrate, enhancing the environment for aquatic and terrestrial life.

Dried aggregates are granular materials that have been processed and dried to remove moisture, making them suitable for various industrial and construction purposes.

The production of dried aggregates involves extracting raw materials, such as gravel, sand, or crushed stone, followed by cleaning and drying processes to achieve the desired level of moisture content.

Dried aggregates are available in a range of sizes, from fine sands to larger gravel, to suit different applications and project requirements.

To maintain their quality, dried aggregates should be stored in a dry, clean environment protected from moisture and contamination.
