Everything you need to know about 6mm Grano Dust
Overview
What Is 6mm Grano Dust?
6mm grano dust is a fine crushed stone that packs down into a firm, flat layer. People buy it for levelling under artificial grass, as a bedding layer for flags and pavers, and for path and shed bases. You can buy it in two sizes: an 800kg grano dust bulk bag or a 6mm grano dust 25kg bag.
Which Size Do I Need?
- 800kg bulk bag: for whole lawns, patios and long paths. One bag weighs the same as thirty two 25kg bags.
- 25kg bag: for small areas, repairs and topping up, or where a bulk bag can't go near the job.
How Much Grano Dust Do I Need?
Measure the area in square metres, decide the depth, then use this general guide for compacted crushed rock dust, worked on about 1.8 tonnes per m³:
| Depth | 800kg bulk bag | 25kg bag |
|---|---|---|
| 25mm | about 18m² | about 0.55m² |
| 50mm | about 9m² | about 0.28m² |
So a 4m by 5m artificial grass area (20m²) at 25mm is 0.5m³, or about 900kg: just over one bulk bag. Add around 10% for uneven ground and waste (about 990kg in total), so plan on one bulk bag plus about eight 25kg bags, or two bulk bags. These are general figures for this type of material, not a measured figure for this listing.
How to Lay It
- Dig out and compact a sub base first, such as MOT Type 1.
- Spread the grano dust, rake it to an even 25mm to 50mm and dampen it lightly if it's very dry.
- Compact with a plate compactor, then check the level with a straight edge and fill any dips.
- Bulk bags are heavy and can't be shifted by hand once they're down, so decide where the bag should go before it arrives: firm, level ground as close to the job as you can manage.
