BOUND SURFACING
THE FUTURE OF
LANDSCAPING
– RESIN BOUND
Resin Bound surfacing has taken the
landscaping industry by storm with
a surge in popularity over the last 5
years, making it the fastest growing
surfacing application in the UK.
Compared to other surfacing
solutions such as block paving,
concrete and macadam, resin bound
offers considerable advantages and
is being viewed by many designers
and contractors as an integral
feature of landscaping and the ideal
solution for driveways, paths and
patios.
One of resin bound’s key advantages
is permeability. With urbanisation,
flood risk and unpredictable
weather becoming everyday issues

with serious consequences,
homeowners are increasingly
interested in ‘futureproof’
solutions; equally importantly,
government legislation now
insists all new driveways must
comply with SUDS (Sustainable
Urban Drainage Systems)
regulations.
Resin bound is SUDS compliant,
and planning permission is not
required providing a porous subbase
or suitable soakaway exists. It can
handle up to 850L of water per m2
per minute!
Furthermore, resin bound is fade,
weed and frost resistant. As well as
these practical benefits, it also has
considerable aesthetic advantages.
The range of colours available is
incredible and design opportunities
are limitless. From geometric
patterns to personalised letters;
bespoke logos to contrasting colour
blocks – the design of any resin
bound project is limited only by
imagination.
