Paving the way for a sustainable future....
A Resin Bound system is aesthetically and physically superior than other products.The gravel is mixed together with the resin. This mixture is then hand troweled on to the base surface to leave a smooth flat finish with no loose gravel.The resulting surface is fully permeable, allowing surface water to naturally drain away. This is compliant with Sustainable Urban Drainage System "SUDS" requirements and therefore requires no planning permission.
SuDS are designed to manage water as close to the source as possible and tackle excess water run off to reduce pressure on current council drainage systems. Water flows through a permeable surface in to a permeable fill or sub-base where it can be stored, conveyed or allowed to infiltrate the lower strata and re-charge the ground water where there is no risk to its water quality.
Resin bound surfacing is one of the primary SuDS solutions and offers a fully porous solution. It therefore sits under the ‘eco paving’ and ‘sustainable drainage system’ threshold. It is an eco friendly option, which is highly encouraged by The Environmental Agency.
