Porous Paving Supplier Melbourne

Porous paving is an excellent option for urban areas satisfying local government Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) requirements. Stormwater is absorebed back into the ground reducing the impact on the public stormwater.  The permeable material of the paver allows water to flow to the subgrade or it can be collected for future use. Porous paving is an environmentally sustainable product as it also 100% recyclable. 

The pavers are beneficial for trees grown in the built environment as the pavers allow water and airflow to access the roots of trees and shrubs.

Porous paving has tiny pores, smaller than most particles in water, which soak up the storm water.  The rain is filtered through into the paver.  100% of the water is replenished to the underground water system.
