Application

  • Suitable for conservation areas and traditional architectural schemes.
  • Appropriate for all requirements in patios, courtyards and driveways.

Description

Manufactured from locally sourced high-grade aggregates and premium quality iron oxide pigments, a bespoke rumbling process fully distresses the block to give a much more authentic reclaimed cobbled effect compared to antiquing systems or products produced without secondary processing.


Features and benefits:

  • Available in four colour ranges and various sizes, permitting a range of laying patterns.
  • 80 mm blocks available for heavy duty pavements with regular heavy traffic.

Please consult AG technical literature for further details.


Technical characteristics:

  • All-through mix.
  • Efflorescence: factory controlled vapour curing significantly reduces this naturally occurring chemical reaction.
  • Tensile Splitting: >3.6 MPa. This applies to all sizes and depths.
  • Strength: For specific force performance on a given size or depth please contact AG's Technical Specification Department.


Sustainability:

  • Energy use: 100% renewable energy.
  • Water used: 100% recycled water.
  • Recyclability: 100% of this product can be recycled.
  • Manufacturing location: Produced in the UK using responsibly sourced materials.
  • Waste wood and plastic: 100% recycled.
  • Carbon footprint: AG have a new state-of-the-art washing plant which enables AG to produce paving from 100% recycled waste aggregate.
  • BREEAM rating: 40–60mm: A Rating – according to the Green Guide to Specification 4th edition 2009. A+ Rating can be achieved when used in conjunction with a prepared recycled sub-base. 80 mm: B Rating – according to the Green Guide to Specification 4th edition 2009. A Rating can be achieved when used in conjunction with a prepared recycled sub-base.
