FlowPave paver

Product Description

Firth FlowPave is one of the paver options in the Firth EcoPave® System. The paver has enlarged nibs on all four sides which creates wider than usual gaps around each paver. This space allows water to filter through to the underlying drainage medium.

Benefits

  • Reduces rainfall runoff from hard surfaces, decreasing the demand on drainage systems.
  • 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 run off water by removing heavy metals such as zinc and copper through cationic exchange when using greywacke sub base drainage aggregates.
