Green Granite Chippings – Decorative Stone – Landscaping & Driveways

Product Overview

Our 14mm Green Granite Chippings are crafted from natural granite stone, crushed and screened to a reliable 14mm size. These angular stones provide firm, free-draining coverage ideal for paths, borders, and domestic driveways.

Their color ranges from soft green to muted grey, with occasional blue-green tones. This natural variation ensures a subtle visual appeal that complements any landscape design. When wet, the chippings reveal a deeper, richer shade, adding contrast to your outdoor spaces.

Being a hard igneous rock, granite is highly resistant to frost, rain, and weathering, maintaining its form and color with minimal maintenance.
