HEPHALIT® in your own garden.
Nothing can get in the way of lively garden design as the light weight of HEPHALIT® Tuff makes it easy to use.
For example, the small grain size of HEPHALIT® Tuff makes it an elegant alternative to bark mulch. Or perhaps you finally want to be able to express yourself by establishing an Alpine rockery or herb garden. A quite different impression is created – you could even call it "mystical" – by placing HEPHALIT® Erratics as attractive features in your garden. These are to name but a few examples.
Quantity: Around 40 litres/m2 (HEPHALIT® Tuff 4/16, 8/20 or 30/70)
HEPHALIT® on roof terraces.
Atmospheric roof gardens often get their unique ambience from the use of HEPHALIT® Tuff stones. The low weight of the material makes it ideal for use on roof gardens.
HEPHALIT® for cultivation.
Mix HEPHALIT® sand 0/4 (pots smaller than 10 litres) or HEPHALIT® Tuff 4/16 (pots larger than 10 litres) in a ratio of 50:50 with the usual potting compost for cultivating your ornamental plants, fruit and vegetables, and benefit from the unique benefits of HEPHALIT® products.

- High water retention capacity that can balance out periods of drought.
- The dark colour makes soils warmer, thus enabling earlier sowing.
- I high proportion of minerals and trace elements enliven the soil, ensuring that nutrients are bound in and filtered and therefore do not endanger the groundwater.
