SPACERS FOR PERMEABLE PAVING
The System
Features
- Use with any modular paving unit to create a permeable paved area
- Schemes are no longer limited to purpose made permeable pavers and blocks
- Enables rainwater to infiltrate into a suitable sub-grade through the joints
- Slows water so it flows naturally into the water table
- 2010 Flood and Water Management Legislation and Class F Compliant
- Allows pollutants to be trapped by the subgrade
- Unaffected by vibratory plates and rollers
- Made from 100% recycled materials
- Made in Great Britain for reduced carbon footprint
- 25-year guarantee
Benefits
- Architects – no longer restricted to the limited range of purpose made permeable blocks e.g. Marshalls Priora, Formpave Aquaflow. SuDSFLOW now enables most modular paving units to be used for permeable paving schemes
- Cost effective – Can avoid complex and costly designs by removing need for gullies, drainage pipes, drain runs and flow mechanisms associated with traditional drainage
- Availability – For use with readily available standard paving units, effectively making permeable paving available ex-stock
- Aesthetics – Spacers provide a consistent and accurate 10mm joint width and are invisible once covered by jointing material
- Absorption – Rainfall is absorbed into the sub-grade to create puddle free paving
- Local Authorities – a range of permeable pavers is no longer required for repairs and maintenance to SuDS paving
- Overseas – Makes permeable paving available in countries where specialist permeable pavers are not manufactured
Fields of Application
- Pedestrianised Areas
- Access Roads
- Footpaths
- Roof Terraces
- Car Parks and Ramps
Limitations of Use
Limited by the design of the sub-base.
