Summary
Paving block designed to emulate natural granite.
Paving block designed to emulate natural granite.
Application
For block paving applications.
For block paving applications.
Description
Paving block designed to emulate traditional natural granite. The coarse textured surface exposes the sparkling granite aggregates to provide a distinctive appearance similar to natural granite. This provides the aesthetic qualities which can match period design or add character to modern buildings.
Features and benefits:
- 100% renewable energy used.
- 100% water used from rainwater harvesting system.
- BREEAM rating B (A can be achieved when used with recycled sub-base).
