The world’s most durable, sustainable & permeable hardscapes
Romex® provides multiple solutions for creating resilient, permeable hardscapes, which support green infrastructure and storm water management.
Primarily, Romex® resin-based jointing mortars provide a water-permeable grout for pavers in unbound (sand-set) and bound (mortar-set) assemblies. Unit pavers that are designated as permeable pavers with larger joint spaces in between can particularly benefit from Romex® jointing solutions.
Secondly, for bound assemblies, Romex® Trass Bed drainage bedding mortar works as an industry-first permeable slab. The incredible strength of the polymer-enhanced binding agent, with proprietary Trass additive, uses aggregate for its structure (no rebar required), providing superior load-bearing properties, inhibits efflorescence, yet provides sufficient porous channels through which rainwater can travel.
Thirdly, applying the same resin technology, Romex® provides resilient resin-bonded gravel solutions for tree surrounds, pathways, garden edging, and the like. For resin-bound gravel, permeability is essentially the same as if the gravel were installed on its own.
