Eco-Friendly

Resin bound driveways can be as eco-friendly as concrete patios and walkways. Our resin bound surfaces are made with natural stone and a high quality resin containing no solvents. This ensures that they are as strong as concrete, yet are less harmful to the planet.

The permeable nature our resin driveways patios and pathways allows water to naturally drain away. This helps reduce the risk of flooding in an eco-friendly and sustainable way.

Sustainable Urban Drainage Compliant

Oct 2008 saw the adoption of legislation that applied to households. It stated that any paving that exceeds 5m in front of a property must be permeable, and that any paving that is not permeable would need planning permission. This is also known in planning as Sustainable Urban Drainage or UUDs.

Resin bound driveways as well as patios and paths can be permeable. The Environmental Agency encourages the use of resin driveways, patios, or paths that do not require planning permission. This is because they can help to reduce surface water runoff as well as reduce flooding potential.

Hard Wearing, Durable & Long Lasting

We use only 100% natural stone from Europe and the UK for our resin driveways, patios and paths. The full range of performance in both residential and commercial installations has been ensured by extensive testing of various aggregate mixes.

Our resins are made with the most advanced polymer technology to create a durable and resilient surface. They also have a unique durability and longevity that is unmatched in the industry. Our resins create a long-lasting, durable driveway, patio, and path with great aesthetics.

Low Maintenance

Resin driveways, patios, and paths are durable and strong but they are also low-maintenance compared to traditional surfacing methods.

The binding agent resin acts as a sealant, preventing cracks and allowing you to eliminate weeds from growing between joints. Because the resin is flexible, it is resistant to flaking or cracking. This means that you don’t have to repoint flags, block paving or top up gravel that has been washed away.

The driveway, patio and path are beautiful year after year.

UV Stable, Resistant Against Fading

We use ResinBound UVR Pro, which is the best choice for polyurethane resins. It has been specifically formulated to be used in resin bound driveways and patios. It is also UV stable. Resin bound aggregates will never yellow, change colour or fade under UV light.

ResinBound UVR Pro resin has been tested to ensure its quality. It comes with a 25-year color lock guarantee from the manufacturer.

Stain Resistant

Because resin driveways, patios, paths and patios are made from recycled materials, they are highly resistant to staining problems that can be found with stone, concrete, or tarmac. The resin acts like a sealant and prevents oil or other staining substances entering natural stone aggregates.

The porous structure on the finished surface allows any residues that may be staining to non-permeable surfaces can be naturally washed away instead of being absorbed.

Weed Resistant

Resin bound surfaces can be installed in a clever cellular arrangement that makes them resistant to weed growth. This is why patios, driveways and paths are protected from weed growth. Because of its porous nature, water is not retained in the surface and this can cause roots to become resistant.

Furthermore, the resin driveway, patio, and path provides a single surface that is continuous. The flexibility combined with the lack of joints eliminates the potential for cracks in traditional surfacing materials.

Anti Slip Properties

All resin driveways, patios and pathways we install follow manufacturer recommendations. This ensures exceptional anti-slip characteristics. We have tested all surfaces to ensure they meet safety standards of BS7976-2 guidelines. A “Pendulum test value” (PVT) is the measurement of anti-slip properties. 36 PTV values are required by The Health and Safety Executive. A higher value means that the slip resistance is better.

The lowest possible PVT value we offer for any finish is at 69. Some finishes are higher at 75 and above.
