Chippings are small, angular pieces of crushed stone, typically ranging from 5 to 20 mm in size. Produced by mechanically crushing natural rock, they feature rough surfaces that provide excellent interlocking strength and durability. They are widely used as a core aggregate in asphalt road surfacing, concrete production, and railway ballast. Additionally, chippings serve as a popular decorative and functional material for garden landscaping, driveways, and drainage systems due to their natural aesthetics and weed-suppression qualities.
