Application

Used to hard landscape outdoor areas.

IMPORTANT: All specification information must be checked against the individual site requirements. Flowcrete advises that specifications are confirmed with their technical experts.

Description

A resin bound gravel system used to hard landscape outdoor areas which consists of a mix of stone aggregates bound in a polyurethane resin binder. It eliminates the cracks where weeds can grow and provides a durable replacement for loose stone or gravel.


Features and benefits:

  • Slip resistant.
  • UV resistant.
  • Wear resistant.
  • Abrasion resistant.
  • Aesthetically attractive.
  • Durable.
  • Impact resistant.
