Interlocking permeable pavers are meant to replace concrete or other solid surfaces that require additional structural support. Interlocking pavers, in particular, are intended to provide additional ground stability for automobile and pedestrian activity while also allowing water to flow from the surface to below the paver.
The permeable paver elements help to reduce surface water runoff. When used in conjunction with an angular rock sub-base, the pavers help reduce standing surface water. They can be utilized on a gravel or grass surface while still providing structural support to prevent rutting. Also, when used in conjunction with gravel, the pavers prevent material runoff.
In contrast, our interlocking permeable paver is constructed from post-consumer HDPE plastic. We repurpose plastic that might otherwise end up in landfills. The paver aims to assist in building a stable, long-lasting gravel or grass base. It is permeable once installed, helping to reduce material and water runoff. Depending on how it is installed, it can function as a water retention system for your property. After installation, it produces a huge, homogeneous surface on which aggregate is placed and compacted. This creates a strong, sturdy surface that can withstand the weight of huge trucks and other vehicles. When properly installed, the paver allows water to run underneath the surface, preventing rutting from car tires. In fact, the pavers are robust enough to drive on even before they are filled with aggregate material.
