Wood Chips
Wood chips are made from old pallets and construction lumber that have
been ground to a particle size of one inch or less in size. They can be
used as a decorative ground cover or on garden paths. At the Miramar Greenery,
natural, plain, red, and brown wood chips are available. Natural wood
chips are made from ground, untreated tree branches and logs. Plain wood
chips are made from ground, untreated pallet wood and lumber. Both are
made from wood waste that has been diverted from the landfill. Plain wood
chips are also used to make colored wood chips, like red and brown, using
non-toxic, iron-oxide dye. Other custom colors are available.
While every effort has been made to remove any contamination including
metals, nails, etc. from these wood chips, trace amounts of contamination
may occasionally be present in the finished product.
Disclaimer:
Please note that once the dye is set on the colored wood chips it is "permanently
adhered" to the colored wood chips. However, chemical solvents, for
example pesticides, may dissolve the dye causing it to no longer be water
soluble.
