Full details

The Deco-pak Nordic Sky 20mm Angular Gravel is an ideal solution for homeowners and landscapers looking to create a serene, low-maintenance aesthetic in their gardens or pathways. Featuring a distinctive blue-grey hue, this natural stone offers a Scandinavian-inspired look that integrates beautifully with modern outdoor designs.

FAQs

How much area will 750kg cover?

At a standard depth of 50mm, 750kg of gravel typically covers approximately 10 to 12 square meters.

Is this gravel suitable for driveways?

It is suitable for light-use driveways, but its angular nature is primarily intended for foot traffic and decorative landscaping.

Does the color change when wet?

Yes, like most natural stones, the blue-grey tones become more vibrant and deep when wet.

Is it safe for pets?

Yes, as it is a natural inert stone, it is safe for garden environments with pets.

Do I need to wash it before laying?

No, it is not strictly necessary. The rain will wash away the light film of natural sediment naturally.

Troubleshooting

Stone appears dull or grey on arrival

This is likely natural sediment. Simply spread the gravel and allow it to be rinsed by natural rainfall, or hose it down once installed.

Gravel is migrating into the lawn

Install a physical garden border or edging material to contain the gravel within the desired area.

Weeds are appearing through the gravel

Ensure a high-quality landscape fabric was placed underneath during installation. If not, you may need to clear the area and add one.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Aesthetic blue-grey tones complement modern and traditional gardens
  • Angular shape provides better stability than rounded gravel
  • Highly durable and weather-resistant
  • Provides an effective weed-suppressing layer when used with membrane
  • Eco-friendly natural material

Cons

  • Initial sediment film requires rainfall to wash away
  • Requires significant effort to move due to 750kg weight
  • Not suitable for very high-traffic driveway vehicle use
  • Natural product variations in stone color may occur

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Preparation: Clear the intended area of weeds and debris. Use a heavy-duty landscape membrane to prevent weeds from growing through the gravel.
  2. Installation: Spread the gravel to a depth of at least 40-50mm to ensure full coverage and prevent the ground membrane from showing.
  3. Compatibility: Works well with decorative edgings like steel, timber, or stone borders to prevent migration into lawns.
  4. Care: Very low maintenance is required. If the stones appear dull, simply rinse with water. Natural rainfall will keep the stones clean of sediment over time.
