At Stone Zone, we take immense pride in our reputation as one of Britain's premier Builders Merchants. In line with this commitment, we are delighted to showcase our Trade range, comprising top-quality landscaping materials and aggregates known for their competitive pricing and cost-effectiveness. Among our extensive Trade Range, the 6mm-Dust Limestone stands out as a favoured choice among Landscapers and Builders nationwide.
The 6mm to Dust limestone is highly sought-after for its versatility in landscaping and construction projects. It serves as a finely graded limestone, commonly utilized beneath artificial grass or for levelling sub-base layers.
Derived naturally as a by-product of indigenous stones within the UK, the 6mm-Dust Limestone boasts a soft yet somewhat brittle texture. These finely graded limestones are ground down to dust, imparting qualities akin to sand.
Given the diverse origins of the limestone, variations in colour and size are expected, as they are quarried from various locations across the country. While not typically categorized as decorative garden material due to these inconsistencies, they are highly regarded within the Trade sector for their reliability and utility.

If you're acquainted with aggregates, you'll notice that Limestone Dust shares resemblances with MOT Type 1, while Sandstone Dust proves excellent for levelling expansive areas. Conversely, when contemplating the installation of a shed directly on the ground, a robust sub-base comprising permeable materials is imperative. This underscores the suitability of 6mm Limestone, ideal for creating a durable yet permeable layer. The 6mm aggregates facilitate the creation of a permeable base layer, while the 'dust' fills small crevices, ensuring a sturdy foundation for the shed. Numerous scenarios warrant the indispensability of Limestone to Dust in construction. Landscapes featuring Paving and Artificial Grass greatly benefit from a durable sub-base. Similarly, for Paving and shed installation alike, laying down a permeable yet robust sub-base is paramount for longevity. Additionally, Limestone 20mm to Dust finds utility in sub-base applications such as pathways, driveways, and Decorative Stone features. Ensuring a sub-base depth of at least 30mm is crucial, particularly for driveways, as aggregates bear the weight of vehicles over time. Derived from natural stone ground down to dust, Limestone Dust isn't recommended for aesthetic applications like garden borders or decorative features. Despite its inherent durability when installed to a certain depth, the soft natural feel of limestone renders it unsuitable for direct placement on driveways, as the smaller pieces are prone to crushing and turning to dust under vehicular pressure. PLEASE NOTE: While every effort has been made to ensure our landscaping and building materials are free from contamination; there is always the chance that there may be small pieces of debris present. Please ensure you handle the sand with care when using it. Sample Soil is available in-store, please ask a customer advisor.
