How Do Resin Driveways Impact The Environment?

Water Management & Permeability

Firstly, the permeability that resin driveways offer is a huge environmental benefit. The resin allows water to soak through it's surface, which reduces water run-off and flooding, and helps replenish groundwater levels, which in turn will contribute to improved water management and reduced strain on local water systems.

Reducing The Heat Island Effect

Resin driveways can help to reduce the heat island effect on urban areas due to its ability to reflect sunlight as opposed to absorbing lots of heat.  By maintaining cooler surface temperatures, resin driveways can create better overall comfort, whilst reducing energy consumption and greenhouse gases.

Strength and Durability of Resin Driveways

Compared to block paving or tarmac materials, resin driveways are known for their strength and longevity. Resin driveways are also much less likely to crack, fade and show much wear-and-tear, this means that maintenance is minimal and the need for replacement is far less frequent, therefore reducing the demand for raw materials and limiting the environmental impact associated with transportation and manufacturing.
