Lilac Glass Chippings

Lilac Glass Chippings There is something quietly special about a lilac finish. Our lilac glass chippings carry a deep, aubergine-hued purple that sits beautifully against grey stone, dark kerb sets and green planting. Crushed from recycled glass into angular chips, they bring soft colour to terrazzo floors, garden borders and memorial settings alike. The shade is locked into the glass, so it holds its colour through every season of Irish weather. What lilac glass chippings are These are recycled glass chippings, not natural stone, with a distinctly angular shape that helps them knit together and stay in place. The purple runs right through each piece rather than sitting on the surface, which is why it never fades, washes out or bleeds. Choosing recycled glass also keeps material out of landfill, a small green choice worth making. They come in two sizes, so you can match the chip to the scale and finish of your project: Size option Dimensions Best suited to Medium 6 to 11 mm Terrazzo floors, finer decorative finishes, pots and planters Large 11 to 20 mm Garden borders, grave surrounds, bolder decorative areas Where to use lilac glass chippings Terrazzo flooring, where the angular chips set cleanly into a resin or concrete base Grave and memorial settings, a dignified, low-maintenance finish with a gentle colour Garden borders, patios and driveways, adding contrast against greenery and paving Pots, planters and feature beds, lifting a display with subtle purple Why choose lilac glass chippings Rich aubergine colour that will not fade in sunlight Angular shape that locks together and resists scattering Suppresses weeds and keeps memorial and garden areas tidy Weather-resistant, hard-wearing and easy to rinse clean Made from recycled glass, a sustainable choice Lilac pairs beautifully with white marble chippings for contrast, or with darker aggregates for a deeper, moodier scheme. If you are unsure how the colour will read across a larger area, it is always worth ordering a sample first. FAQs What is the difference between the medium and large lilac chippings? The medium size, 6 to 11 mm, suits terrazzo and finer decorative work. The large size, 11 to 20 mm, gives a bolder look for garden borders and grave surrounds. The colour is identical across both. Are lilac glass chippings suitable for a grave or memorial? Yes, they are a popular memorial choice in Ireland. The colour stays true, weeds are suppressed, and an occasional rinse keeps the surround looking fresh and cared for. Will the purple colour fade outdoors? No. The aubergine shade is fused right through the recycled glass, so it holds its colour through sun, rain and frost without fading, bleeding or washing out.
