Porous, SuDS-compliant, resin bound surfacing using naturally soured aggregates bound together with UV-stable resin (UVR).
Resin bound paving is suitable for domestic, commercial, or industrial use, including:
Please note, resin bound paving is only suitable for up to 7.5 tonnes gross vehicle weight or similar weight vehicles and can be laid to high-level trafficked areas.
Resin bound permeable paving that comprises clear UV stable polyurethane binder and 1–3 mm, 2–5 mm, or 6–10 mm aggregate. Hand-laid by a qualified team of installers, an average depth of 15–22 mm or 40–100 mm is recommended depending on its location and intended use.
Resin bound paving can be laid to open-course asphalt, tarmac, concrete, or other free-draining subbase courses and comes in a variety of colours and finishes.
SuDS Compliant
If you are specifying this paving as part of a SuDS development, then you must ensure the base build-up is also permeable, so either compacted Mot Type 1 or open textured binder course tarmac or concrete.
Natural Foliage
If your surface area contains tree collars, organic tree trunks, and watering systems, then a resin bound tree pit should be specified.
These are installed using 100% 6–10 mm aggregate at a minimum thickness of 40 mm, which can go to 100 mm dependent on requirements.
The larger stones allow for larger air and water recesses and are designed to break with root movement to preserve the root ball and prevent damage to (or killing) the tree.
