Both Stabilized Pathway Mix and Wax Polymer Pathway Mix utilize Kafka’s high-quality decomposed granite or crushed stone, and both can be used on golf pathways to complement the natural look and feel of a course.

Wax Polymer Pathway Mix combines our decomposed granite or crushed stone with an engineered polymer to create a highly durable product. Stabilized pathways may not be suitable for steep or inclines or declines, while wax polymer pathways are ideal for hilly terrain and can withstand intense erosion. Kafka’s Wax Polymer Pathway Mix can be laid on even the steepest of slopes, making it a reliable choice for golf courses with undulating paths and steep landscapes.

Wax Polymer Pathway Mix is also easier to install because it doesn’t need to be activated by water. This product is impermeable, while the Stabilized Pathway Mix remains permeable.

Golf pathways need to complement a course while resisting erosion, withstanding weather, and holding up under frequent foot and cart traffic. That’s exactly what Kafka’s pathway mixes do. Our Wax Polymer Pathway Mix comes in five colors, with Beige Blend being the most popular.

Unlike hardscape surfaces like asphalt and concrete, our golf course cart and walking paths have a natural, aesthetically pleasing look. If you’re looking for a custom color for your course, please contact one of our sales reps.

The product is commonly shipped via bulk end-dump trucks and trailers, with an average truckload of material weighing approximately 23 tons — though the type of material and the size of the truck and trailer will cause this to fluctuate slightly. Less-than-truckload quantities are available in one-ton increments, but may be subject to additional set-up fees due to small production runs.

If bulk truckload shipping is not an option, product can be packaged in ~3,000-pound super sacks. These 1½-ton bags provide easy transportation via flatbed, van, or LTL common carriers, and also facilitate easier storage and handling on job sites. Optional rain covers are also available.

Our Wax Polymer Pathway Mix is easy to install and requires little maintenance, meaning you’ll be able to allocate more resources toward the rest of your golf course, instead of constantly dealing with pathway maintenance. Additionally, this product is pre-mixed to make installation a breeze. No water is needed for the process — simply lay the material, level the surface and compact. Best of all, our Wax Polymer Mix is completely dustless and doesn’t get muddy, making it perfect for golf cart pathways.

Erosion is a constant concern on golf courses, particularly those with hilly terrain, severe weather or freeze/thaw cycles. We designed our bunker sand to combat these issues, helping to protect high-maintenance bunkers. Kafka’s Wax Polymer Bunker Sand is extremely erosion-resistant and can be installed easily over existing bunker sand. Our specially designed sand forces water into the drainage system on a golf course without eroding, protecting your bunkers and reducing costly maintenance.
