Filter and drainage aggregate in Chinchilla and Queensland
What is drainage aggregate?
Filter and drainage aggregate have become increasingly popular across both residential and commercial applications, providing leading solutions within projects where drainage is a necessity.
Drainage aggregate is essentially a natural or processed granular material, typically inclusive of sand, gravel, pebbles, or rock. When looking for filter and drainage aggregate, you can expect to see material segmented by size, being classified into fine and coarse aggregate categories.
When choosing drainage aggregates, it's vital to find a premium aggregate supplier, given the implications poor-quality aggregate can have for projects. A premium quality aggregate will typically improve the quality and longevity of a project and ensure optimal results are reached.

What types of drainage aggregate are available?
While drainage aggregate can be made up of a multitude of different materials such as sand, gravel, pebbles, or rock, it is primarily segmented by size. Two primary aggregate sizes will exist on the market: fine and coarse drainage aggregate. Aggregate sizing can vary significantly with single-sized material ranging anywhere from 5mm to 20mm.
Fine drainage aggregate
Fine filter and drainage aggregate typically consists of materials smaller than 5mm. Fine drainage aggregates are more common amongst smaller-scale projects, though are still utilised across large projects as well. Fine aggregate is primarily seen being used for subsurface drainage, pipe bedding, access roads/ driveways, and railway projects.
Coarse drainage aggregate
Coarse filter and drainage aggregate usually consist of materials greater than 5mm. Coarse drainage aggregates are more common for larger-scale residential and commercial projects, though they still have a place amidst small projects as well. Coarse aggregate is primarily seen being used for bedding and filling material. Larger rocks and aggregate, when packed into a drainage system, will inevitably provide better drainage given the less restriction and greater water flow capacity.

How filter aggregate works
Filter and drainage aggregate essentially works by facilitating the movement of water around a property. Filter and drainage aggregate have both residential and commercial implications and are primarily used for landscaping projects. Aggregate will often run behind retaining walls or underneath gardens to allow water to run freely with little resistance, and are long-lasting against the outdoor elements.
