Glow Stones, Rocks & Pebbles
The Best Glow In The Dark Stones, Rocks & Pebbles
AGT™ Glow Stones, Rocks, and Pebbles (also known as photo-luminescent aggregates) were first introduced to the concrete industry in 2008 with our Commercial Grade Glow Stones. Since then, AGT™ glow-in-the-dark rocks have gained global notoriety due to their magical glowing qualities!
What makes AGT™ Glow Aggregates stand apart from Mica-laden or fiber optic embedded concrete, is that they are 'self-powered'. They absorb UV spectrum light during the day and store it until the charging source is no longer present and then begin to give off their energy in the form of ambient light at night. Whether you're creating a glowing path, glow in the dark driveway, illuminated patio, pool deck, or public trail, AGT™ glow stones provide a beautiful electricity-free lighting solution. Our Ultra Grade & ULTRA-X grade stones have an industry-leading glow duration, maintaining an ambient glow for up to 15+ hours with only 8-10 minutes of direct UV light.
The AGT™ Glow Labs has worked hard to develop several glow-in-the-dark aggregate products over the years including;
- Ultra Grade (the new and improved Commercial Grade)
- ULTRA-X (our most powerful glow aggregate yet)
- Glowing Mini Pebbles (specially designed for concrete pool liner applications)
- Galactic Series™ (a space mirroring combination of our most popular colors)
- Glacier White (Limited Production White/Blue hued glow)
- Plasma Purple (Limited Production Purple hued glow)
We offer our glow products in a variety of colors including Emerald Yellow, Sky Blue, and Aqua Blue, and sizes from 1/8", 1/4", and 1/2". AGT™ glow stones are commonly used to create glowing paths, walkways, driveways, patios, pool decks, and other decorative concrete and asphalt features. Other features of our glow rocks include being non-toxic, weatherproof, and offering a 20+ year lifespan.
FAQs About Glow Stones, Rocks & Pebbles:
What is the best glow stone for a glowing path project?
AGT™ ULTRA-X Glow Stones are the brightest and longest-lasting glow stones available, making them the preferred choice for glowing paths, walkways, trails, and public pathway projects. Engineered with AGT™ Hyper-Luminosity technology, ULTRA-X stones deliver exceptional initial brightness and can maintain a visible glow for up to 15+ hours after charging. Their superior performance makes them ideal for projects where nighttime visibility, safety, and visual impact are important, including residential garden paths, park trails, bike paths, and commercial developments.
What is the best glow stone for concrete projects?
AGT™ ULTRA-X and ULTRA Grade Glow Stones are specifically designed for concrete applications and are commonly installed in glow in the dark patios, driveways, walkways, pathways, pool decks, and decorative concrete features. These photoluminescent aggregates can be seeded into freshly placed concrete and exposed during finishing to create a permanent glowing surface. Their durability, weather resistance, and long glow duration make them a popular choice for both residential and commercial concrete projects.
Can glow stones be installed in asphalt?
Yes. AGT™ glow stones can be incorporated into asphalt and tarmac surfaces, making them an excellent choice for glow in the dark trails, bike paths, recreational pathways, road shoulders, and municipal infrastructure projects. The stones are typically broadcast onto the surface of fresh asphalt and rolled into place during installation. Once exposed, they provide subtle ambient illumination after dark, helping define pathways and improve visibility without the need for electricity.
How long do glow stones last?
AGT™ glow stones are engineered to maintain their photoluminescent performance for more than 20 years under normal outdoor conditions. Unlike solar lights that rely on batteries, bulbs, or electrical components, glow stones absorb natural sunlight during the day and release that stored energy at night. There are no moving parts to fail, making them a low-maintenance, long-term solution for glow in the dark pathways, driveways, patios, and trails.
What color glow stones are the brightest?
Sky Blue and Aqua Blue are AGT™'s most popular and highest-performing glow colors. These colors produce a bright, highly visible glow that is ideal for glowing paths, driveways, patios, pool decks, and trails. Aqua Blue is often chosen for projects where maximum brightness is desired, while Sky Blue remains a favorite for creating a natural, moonlit appearance. Both colors provide exceptional nighttime visibility and are commonly used in award-winning AGT™ installations around the world.
What size glow stones should I choose?
AGT™ glow stones are available in several sizes to suit different applications. 1/2" glow stones are the most popular choice for concrete and asphalt projects because they create the most dramatic glowing effect and are highly visible after dark. 1/4" glow stones are often used when a more refined appearance is desired, while 1/8" aggregates and Glowing Mini Pebbles are ideal for pools, exposed aggregate finishes, decorative concrete, and detailed design work. Choosing the right size depends on the desired appearance, substrate, and overall project goals.
