Description

Combining drainage characteristics with long term durability, ULTIPOROUS is hard wearing permeable asphalt which eliminates the problem of surface water while meeting relevant local planning requirements.


Features and benefits:

  • Using the latest porous asphalt technology and a modified binder, the open aggregate structure allows effective drainage and avoids surface water.
  • Eliminates the problem of both standing water and ice patches which can occur in cold weather conditions.
  • Avoids expensive additional drainage, allowing quicker project delivery.
  • Available in 6 mm for driveways and 10 mm for car parks. When combined with the Ultiflow range of permeable sub-base aggregates, it offers a complete permeable solution.
