10mm Non Decorative Pea Shingle/Gravel Bulk Bag (800kg)

Product Overview

10mm pea shingle (also called pea gravel or pea stone) supplied in a 800kg bulk bag, made up of smooth, rounded natural pebbles in mixed grey-brown shades. 

Fine 10mm grade packs closely together, making it ideal for pipe bedding, trench backfill, and paths where a firm, even surface is required.

Features & Benefits

• Free-draining aggregate (10mm stones): Allows water to pass easily, preventing waterlogging in drains, beds, and landscaping.
• Naturally rounded pebbles: Provides a stable, protective bedding layer for pipes and trenches.
• Colour variation (grey-brown mix): Neutral tones blend discreetly with outdoor groundworks; not intended as a decorative finish.
• Non-compacting material: Retains drainage capacity and stability over time, avoiding the need for regular replenishment.
• Cost-effective, non-decorative: Ideal for practical groundworks where decorative stone is not required.
• Low-maintenance material: Once laid, requires minimal attention in long-term use.
• 800kg bulk bag supply: Reduces downtime and reordering, keeping larger projects on schedule.
• Stone size range (4-10mm): Fine grading suits backfill and tight-space applications.

Please Note: Colours vary naturally between grey and brown and cannot be chosen at the point of sale. This is a non-decorative material - for decorative finishes, consider an alternative stone from our range of colourful stones and chippings.

Weight may vary by ±5% due to differing moisture levels in the aggregate.

Applications

• Drainage systems: Can be used with French drains, soakaways, and general drainage runs, supporting water flow and stability.
• Pipe bedding: Commonly used beneath perforated pipes to protect against damage and ensure consistent water movement.
• Backfilling drains: Provides stable, free-draining backfill in trench applications for improved water management.
• Landscaping and garden beds: Acts as a mulch, reducing erosion and suppressing weeds when combined with a permeable membrane.
  
  

Installation Guidance

• Weed control preparation: For best results, install a permeable weed-suppressant membrane before laying to block sunlight, reduce germination, and provide a barrier against persistent weeds.
• Layer thickness: Spread evenly to the required depth to maintain drainage capacity and weed-suppressing performance.
• Handling bulk bags: Delivered in crane-offload bulk bags; mechanical lifting equipment or multiple people recommended for safe movement.
  
  

Compliance & Performance

• Aggregate grading (4-10mm, rounded): Meets practical requirements for drainage, bedding, and landscaping.
• Service class (external ground contact): Suitable for outdoor, ground-level use in free-draining applications.
