Chartres Range
The concept of Chartres paving was inspired by the beautiful medieval
city of Chartres in northern France.
Chartres is manufactured with an olden finish and has been specifically
designed for use in conservation areas or on projects where
architectural heritage is a major consideration. Chartres classic
Traditional paving faithfully reproduces the mixture of colours and
maturity found in the city. It is a blend of 3 colours; golden brown,
mid brown and charcoal. In addition to the Traditional colour, Chartres
classic is also available in Vendage, Pennant, Purbeck and Cotswold.
Chartres Classic Combined Modular Paving
Comprises of 3 module sizes, each layer is mixed enabling the
specifier to create a variety of laying patterns from strict coursing in
one of more sizes to a totally random pattern.
Chartres Classic Large Modular Paving
Chartres large is available in a 60m thickness in separate packs for
use as an edging detail. It can also be laid in a herringbone format,
this is the recommended patters for trafficked areas. Available in
Charcoal and Traditional, other colours are available on request. For
heavier loadings 80mm thickness is available to special order.
The Chartres Range also consists of Cobbles, Setts & Boulevard Paving
Blocks
The colours and olden finish make the range particularly suitable for
use in conservation areas or on projects where architectural heritage is
important.
The Chartres Range is totally flexible and enables the specifier to
produce designs tailored to individual needs, from the traditional
formal coursing to a more random formation with no regular jointing.
Chartres Cobbles are 60 or 80mm thick and are manufactured in a 100 x
100mm module. They can be traditionally coursed or laid in more unusual
patterns such as circles or flanders fans.
Chartres Setts have the distinctive appearance of natural stone sets
traditionally throughout the country. 48 separate paving blocks (one
layer) are used to provide 0.75m˛ of paving and are delivered in a
standard laying pattern which can be varied to suit alternative designs.
Chartres setts are manufactured in 60 and 80mm thicknesses.
Chartres Boulevard Paving offers an alternative to the often repetitive
use of slabs and small element paving.
EcoGranite
The Formpave EcoGranite is an environmental alternative to the use of
freshly quarried granite. Formpave’s unique granite mix includes both
Stent and Slag; by-produces of Cornish China Clay and the South Wales
Steel Industry. The EcoGranite range contains up to 77% recycled
materials.
The advantages of the Hanson Formpave EcoGranite over natural granite
are price, ease of laying, consistent joint widths and a regular surface
that is pedestrian friendly. The bush-hammered surface finish exposes
the sparkling granite and gives excellent slip-skid resistance.
EcoGranite is available under two colour ranges: Cornish and Royal
Deeside; both consist of cobbles, setts, long-setts and paving.
The Cornish colours are based on the natural granites of Cornwall and
include Cornish Natural (a sparkling white granite with black flecks),
Tintagel (a light yellow granite) and Truro (a natural and charcoal
brindle granite).
The Royal Deeside colours are based on the distinctive appearance of the
dazzling granites found in the Royal Deeside region of Scotland. They
include Balmoral (a black granite with white flecks), Braemar (a red
granite with black and white flecks), Victoria (a white and yellow
brindle granite) and Lochnagar (a red and charcoal brindle granite).
Aquaflow - Permeable Paving Blocks
Aquaflow Permeable Paving & Stormwater Source Control System
This system is designed to control stormwater run-off and the subsequent
overloading and pollution of water courses. Typical uses are in car
parks, industrial estates, retail centres, pedestrian areas, motorway
service areas and domestic drives.
The system has been tested for over 15 years and is covered by patent
applications in Great Britain and other countries. It is the subject of
Agrément Cert. 97/3373.
The Formpave system does not require gullies, drainage pipes, drain runs
or oil and silt traps. It can also cater for roof water. The system
comprises permeable paving laid on a specialist sub-base. Permeable
paving comprises the Aquaflow permeable block paving range, Aquaflow,
Aquaflow ML, Aquasett and Aquaslab. All blocks and slabs incorporate
tapers and drainage channels. Sub-base Water is filtered through a 5mm
stone laying course, Inbitex geotextile and 350mm depth of sub-base
stone. The tanked system is lined with an impermeable membrane so that
the water can be released in a controlled manner or recycled.
Alternatively the infiltration system is lined with a geotextile and the
water infiltrated directly back into the sub-grade.
