Plum Slate 40mm Bulk Bag

A Plum to Purple slate 

Quarried from the Welsh Valleys

This purple welsh slate is one of the most popular decorative products on the market.

The slate is well suited for a wide range of different applications, such as garden paths, water features, driveway stones, pot toppers, ground cover and planting areas. The creation of decorative garden features including pergolas, arbours and garden buildings are also made highly impactful with this chipping.

Quarried from the world famous Penrhyn and Cwt-y-Bugail quarries in North Wales, the slate has been screened down to a graded size of 40-20mm in size. This is achieved through a series of processes of screening the stone to only select the highest quality correctly sized slate. Also available in 20mm or in graphite or blue colours. Each bulk bag contains around 850kg.

This product can be laid at any depth however for garden and driveway applications it is best laid between 40mm and 60mm in depth. This will provide sufficient ground cover and will withstand foot traffic or vehicle traffic. It is advisable to lay this product on a good quality weed control fabric, such as Plantex. If using this for vehicle areas with high use, it may be best to consider a stabilisation product such as Grass Grid. 

Should delivery be required, the bulk bag will be delivered to your kerbside path or driveway, either by a GPH vehicle using a hi-ab crane to offload the bag or alternatively by a pallet network partner where a pallet will be unloaded via a tail lift vehicle. Hi-ab delivery is only available within AB postcodes.

As GPH Builders Merchants is a Scottish based business, delivery costs to remote and rural parts of the Country are very reasonable in comparison to some competitors.
