HPB (High Performance Bedding) stone is a small, angular limestone chip (typically 1/4" in size) that is clean and free-draining. Unlike traditional screenings, HPB does not compact into a hard surface, making it an ideal bedding material that allows water to pass through easily while still providing excellent stability.
Common Uses:
Bedding layer under interlocking pavers and slabs
Base for patios, walkways, and driveways
Backfill around retaining walls
Drainage applications where fine compaction is not required
Key Features:
Size: ~1/4" angular limestone chip
Washed and free of fines
Excellent drainage properties
Easy to work with and spread evenly
Benefits:
Prevents water pooling and freeze-thaw damage under pavers
Provides a stable yet permeable bedding surface
Low-maintenance and long-lasting
A cleaner alternative to limestone screenings
