Endicott Stabilized Pathway Brick Aggregate is the perfect choice for pedestrian traffic areas that need a natural appearance. Our stabilized pathway mix is made from recycled Endicott brick and an organic stabilizing binder from Organic-Lock™. Recycled brick and an organic binder make our pathway material a sustainable eco-friendly choice. In addition, recycled brick pathways are a more affordable alternative to decomposed granite, concrete, asphalt, or other hardscape alternatives. Endicott Stabilized Pathway Brick Aggregate is ideal for greenspaces at corporate campuses, parks, nature paths, and public spaces.
Endicott Stabilized Pathway Brick Aggregate is screened through a carefully controlled grinding system for precise sieve distribution. Having the proper mix of particle sizing promotes permeability while also allowing for necessary compaction. The Organic-Lock™ binder absorbs excess water through swelling and then gradually releases the water through evaporation into the atmosphere as well as through the base course into the groundwater table. Like our permeable clay paver application, our stabilized pathway has a hydrologic function in addition to providing a desirable aesthetic look.

Featured Project: Endicott Headquarters Lakeside Pathway
A Pathway to Progress
The Endicott Clay Products corporate office recently transformed its outdoor space with a beautiful and sustainable pathway made from Endicott Stabilized Pathway Brick Aggregate. This eco-friendly material, composed of recycled brick and an organic binder, not only enhances the natural aesthetic of the landscaping but also provides a durable and low-maintenance walking surface. The pathway’s permeable nature helps to manage stormwater runoff, contributing to a healthier environment. This project demonstrates the versatility and benefits of Endicott Stabilized Pathway Brick Aggregate as a sustainable and attractive choice for pedestrian traffic areas.
Installation Details
1. Base Preparations
Excavate and prepare the subgrade to the depth required in your specifications (taking into consideration both the depth of compacted base and depth of compacted aggregate).
It is important to start with a well-compacted subgrade before the base material is introduced. Compact the subgrade to 95% Modified Proctor Density using a single or double drum roller or vibratory compactor.
Once the subgrade has been efficiently compacted, you can introduce the base material to the depth required for your installation.
2. Snowball Test
Before spreading the Organic-Lock™ Stabilized Aggregate, it is very important to make sure that the proper moisture level of the material has been achieved. The best way to do this is by performing a snowball test.
3. Spreading Material
With properly hydrated OLSA, you can begin the installation process.
Using an Asphalt/Paver installer is the most efficient and effective means of spreading the hydrated Organic-Lock™ Stabilized Aggregate (OLSA) as it provides a consistent depth of placement. Continually feeding the spreader can result in a seamless installation period that is both technically accurate and cost-effective.
Spread and compact the OLSA material in 3-4 inch lifts.
Hand raking can be used in areas where an Asphalt/Paver installer is not possible. In these situations, it’s important to keep a strong focus on depth consistency across the installation.
Be sure to compensate for the expected depth of compaction when finalizing the end depth.4. Compaction
Compact Endicott Pathway Aggregate with a minimum 1 ton static roller. Make 5-6 passes or continue until visible lines are eliminated.
Be sure to hand compact edges or hard to reach areas prior to compaction. The edges of any pathway will often be prone to the most stress as these are often rainfall collection zones. This is a very strong reason why we recommend non-moveable edges, along with a strong compaction right up to the edge.
In areas where a one-ton roller is not possible or available, it’s possible to use a vibratory plate compactor. If using a vibratory plate compactor, be sure to add a slight mist of water to ensure dry material is not separated at the surface.5. Final Watering
After compaction is complete, it is recommended to provide a final top-down soaking with a water spray to ensure that the Organic-Lock™ is activated on the surface and all the way throughout its profile, as some areas may be prone to drying throughout the installation process.

Endicott Pathway Aggregate Maintenance
Maintenance analysis program required – catch an issue before it develops.
Erosion Damage
Erosion is often the symptom and not the disease. Ongoing erosion (erosion in the same location) is often the symptom of a flaw in the watershed system surrounding the project area. This issue can often be reduced, and even eliminated, by adjusting the areas surrounding the aggregate surface. Divert water where possible using culverts, berms, and drains. If you do experience erosion damage, first look at ways to get the water away or slow the water down that’s causing the damage. Second, replace the lost aggregate with new blended aggregate material following the guidelines found in the Maintenance Page link below.Removing Debris
Remove grass clippings, soil, debris or organic material by mechanically blowing or hand raking as needed.Removing Snow
When plowing snow, use a shoe lift or rubber baffle on the blade of the plow to lift the blade up ¼” off the surface. Extra precautions should always be taken during the shoulder seasons (i.e. just before and just after winter) while the temperature hovers around freezing, as this is when the material is most prone to damage (i.e.the ground is not yet frozen).Excess Loose Material
As the surface weathers with traffic and time, the larger particles of the aggregate will loosen on the surface to create a natural look that leads to the “crunch underfoot” texture that is often sought after in natural settings. If loose material exceeds a ¼” depth, redistribute the particles over a greater surface, scarify the surface to a depth of 1”, water to a 1” depth, and compact with a roller of no less than 1000 lbs. In areas where a large roller is not available, you can use a vibratory plate tamper or a manual hand tamper if needed. Keep traffic off for 24-72 hours.Rejuvenation/Fixing Damaged Area
Soak, scarify with a rake or nail drag and compact. Consult your dealer if you feel more material is needed to be integrated.
