What is 20mm Shingle?
20mm shingle is a versatile, angular or rounded gravel aggregate commonly used in construction, landscaping, and drainage applications. It is made up of crushed or naturally occurring stones and is available as a recycled or quarried product. The 20mm size makes it ideal for providing efficient drainage while maintaining a clean and attractive finish.
Applications of 20mm Shingle:

Perfect for soakaways, French drains, and pipe bedding due to its excellent permeability.

Landscaping:
Ideal for ground cover, rockeries, and decorative features in both residential and commercial settings.
