Grass Blocks have seen a marked increase in popularity and demand over the last couple of years and there is good reason for this; at a time where we are becoming increasingly aware of impacting upon the environment and needing to cope with often considerable amounts of surface water, Low Profile Grass Blocks are the ideal solution.
Being environmentally friendly can conjure up images of making undesirable compromises when it comes to the construction sector, but it doesn’t necessarily have to. Providing hard standing for something like car-park overflow areas, or connecting pathways for example doesn’t mean that you are left with choosing between leaving a green area with its associated beneficial and natural water infiltration or paving the area, with flags or poured concrete, and consequently impacting seriously on its capacity for water infiltration. Low Profile Grass Blocks are very definitely a game-changer here.
KPC’s low profile grass blocks are an excellent choice for any sustainable drainage plan. These blocks provide great infiltration rates, preventing pooling and rutting in areas such as car parks and pathways, and despite their low profile design, they also provide great hard standing.
