PERVIOUS CONCRETE

Building Today for a Greener Tomorrow

 

Pervious Sample

Pervious concrete naturally reduces runoff by allowing rainwater to filter through the concrete's porous structure.  It can help filter stormwater, replenish aquifers, conserve water and protect our streams. 

Pervious concrete is a mix of coarse aggregate, cement, water, and little to no sand.  This concrete mix creates an open-cell structure, allowing rainwater to filter through to underlying soil.  Pervious concrete is an excellent choice for stormwater management.
