Description

Sandstone 10mm Minus

Create a natural, compacted surface with Sandstone 10mm Minus, a versatile crushed sandstone designed for pathways, driveways and general landscaping applications.

This material features a blend of 10mm crushed stone and fine particles (“minus”), allowing it to bind together when compacted, creating a firm, stable surface. It offers a budget-friendly alternative to premium decorative gravels while maintaining a warm, natural appearance.

With its mix of cream, brown, orange and subtle red tones, it delivers a soft, earthy finish that suits a wide range of landscape styles.

Key Features & Benefits

Compactable “minus” material — Contains fines that help the gravel bind together for a firm surface.

Budget-friendly option — A cost-effective solution for paths, driveways and general landscaping.

Natural sandstone colour blend — Warm tones create a soft, organic landscape finish.

Stable underfoot — Compacts to form a solid, low-movement surface.

Versatile use — Suitable for both decorative and functional applications.

What It’s Used For

Pathways & Walkways — Creates a firm, compacted surface ideal for foot traffic.

Driveways & Access Areas — Suitable for light-use driveways and parking areas due to its compaction ability.

Garden Beds & Landscaping — Provides a natural, low-cost decorative ground cover.

Under Pavers & Stepping Stones — Acts as a stable base layer when compacted.

Why It Performs Well

Sandstone 10mm Minus contains a range of particle sizes from stone down to fine dust, allowing it to:

• Compact tightly and form a solid surface
• Fill gaps between larger particles for stability
• Reduce movement under foot or light traffic
• Create a smooth, natural-looking finish

This makes it ideal for applications where stability and affordability are more important than drainage or decorative sharpness.

Important Product Characteristics

Contains fines (“minus”) — Designed to compact, not free-drain.

Limited drainage — Not suitable for drainage applications as fines can restrict water flow.

Softer stone type — May break down slightly over time compared to harder aggregates.

Natural variation in colour and texture — Product will vary between batches.

Installation Tips

• Lay and compact in layers for a firm, stable surface
