BLACK VOLCANIC ROCK
Black volcanic rock of uniform particle size (6-16 mm, 16-25 mm or 25-40
mm). It is slightly denser than red volcanic rock. The applications of
the different particle sizes are as follows:
6-16 mm particle size: recommended as a drainage material to make
substrates and for drainage systems.
16-25 mm particle size: used to decorate gardens and courtyards
to reduce maintenance work, avoid erosion and prevent weeds from growing.
Its volcanic properties make it very suitable as a top layer in planters
and parterres and as mulch.
25-40 mm particle size: can be used as coarse mulch to protect
roots from temperature changes and moisture, prevent weeds from growing
and keep bare soil from eroding.
