EcoPave® Permeable Paving Benefits

- Reduces the need for retention structures (e.g. ground sumps, ponds or dams) and maximises land use by retaining water within the Permeable Paving System.
- Recharges natural groundwater and aquifers.
- Improves hydrological response of stormwater peak flow by holding and releasing in a controlled manner.
- Filters runoff water by removing heavy metals such as zinc and copper through cationic exchange when using greywacke sub-base drainage aggregates.
- This product is one of the solutions for stormwater management in the proposed unitary plan (Auckland only)
