Eco-Friendly Permeable Pavers: Style Meets Sustainability
Permeable interlocking pavers system is the most environmentally friendly paving system.
It is so technologically advanced yet so simple and reliable. It lets the water run through rather than off the paved area.
The Permeable Interlocking Concrete Paving is an basically an interlocking driveway, patio or walkway that lets all the rainwater drain in between the pavers into the permeable base which helps with the overflowing run off water systems during rains. The water runs through the pavers which ends up filtering naturally through the ground which helps our lakes stay cleaner.

How Permeable Interlocking Pavers Work: A Sustainable Paving System
Permeable interlocking pavers are designed to manage water runoff effectively while providing a durable and attractive surface. Here’s how the system works:
- Surface Layer: Concrete pavers, at least 80 mm (3 1/8 in) thick, are laid with openings filled with No. 8, 89, or 9 aggregate. These openings allow water to pass through.
- Bedding Course: A 40 to 50 mm (1 1/2 in. to 2 in.) thick layer of No. 8 aggregate supports the pavers and aids in water filtration.
- Base Layer: A 100 mm (4 in.) thick layer of No. 57 stone forms an open-graded base, allowing water to flow freely.
- Subbase Layer: A minimum 150 mm (6 in.) thick layer of No. 2 stone provides additional drainage and stability.
- Geotextile and Liner: A geotextile fabric protects the impermeable liner, which is placed on the bottom and sides of the open-graded base to control water flow.
- Drainage System: The soil subgrade is sloped to drain, and perforated outfall pipes direct water to a sewer or stream, ensuring efficient water management.
This innovative system not only reduces runoff and prevents flooding but also helps filter water naturally, making it an eco-friendly choice for driveways, patios, and walkways.
