FILTERPAVE® POROUS PAVEMENTS: ARCHITECTURAL-AESTHETICS, ECO-FRIENDLY
Design pavements that exceed your clients' expectations. Create colorful, low-environmental-impact pavements to complement landscape or building designs. Contribute to a greener earth by using abundant recycled materials that reduce stormwater runoff and exhibit a low carbon footprint.
CREATE INSPIRING PAVEMENTS
The Presto FilterPave® system offersa greener, more attractive hard-surfaced porous surfacedesigned to handle light-to-heavy pedestrian or vehicular traffic loads. This unique pavement has architectural aesthetics, design flexibility, and environmental benefits that surpass standards for pavements of its kind.
REFLECT YOUR DESIGN VISION
Complement, contrast or enhance your landscape designs. The colorful mosaic of specially-processed, recycled variant-colored glass is enhanced with five colored pigments to give you design options.
- A hardened surface with porosity comparable to open-graded base course (OGBC).Its better-than-asphalt flexibility and higher compressive strengths are a result of the elastomeric binder.
- The FilterPave surface is as safe as any traditional pavement on which to walk or drive. The high-strength natural binder that bonds the pavement is also safe for plant and marine life.
STORMWATER & ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS
The FilterPave system's highly porous surface reduces stormwater runoff and the use of recycled materials conserve resources.
- Twice as porous as other hard-surfaced porous pavements (38%) results in a greater reduction of stormwater runoff and better resistance to clogging and maintenance requirements.
- Comprised of ~96% recycled materials including 100% post-consumer recycled glass; allows the constructive use of abundant materials that are typically landfilled. About 90 beverage bottles are used in just one square foot of FilterPave pavement.
FilterPave Material: Poured-in-place mix of recycled 100% post-consumer recycled glass, bonded with an elastomeric binder.
INSTALLATION
The FilterPave system is installed by a nationwide network of Certified Contractors experienced in the application of specialty pavements. Contact Presto to locate the Certified Contractor in your area, or if you are interested in becoming a Certified Contractor.
