Porous Paving in Melbourne

Our highly effective permeable paving surfaces enable water to pass through the paving materials. The term “permeable paving” is often used for paved surfaces in which water passes through, or “permeates”, the space between the paving materials (usually paving blocks or stones). The term is also used for surfaces paved with porous materials (such as gravel) in which water permeates the paving material itself.

The benefits of our permeable paving

Permeable paving surfaces prevent the build-up of puddles or, in cool climates, ice patches that can be hazardous to pedestrian or motor traffic. Additionally, permeable paving surfaces reduce water run-off, ultimately lessening the burden of water flowing through antiquated city storm water systems. These are often ill-equipped to handle present run-off volumes.

Permeable paving systems are also friendlier to the environment as they allow water and air to reach trees and plants that form part of a permeable paving project. Also, pollutants are able to settle in the soil or surface beneath the paved area, rather than being carried away by run-off into our sewers and, ultimately, our waterways.

FlowStone™ and SuperStone™ permeable paving

Here at M.P.S. Paving Australia, we offer numerous permeable paving solutions. One of our most popular is FlowStone™, which uses a specifically sized aggregate that results in a fantastically permeable paving system. We also supply SuperStone, which was recently used to construct a fully permeable car park surface in Wesley College Campus to protect the native established trees and flora.
