Porous Pavement Options

Over-taxed storm sewer systems due to population growth and environmental regulations resulting from the implementation of the NPDES Phase II create significant concerns and issues that many communities must now address.

Presto's Geoblock® and Geoweb® porous pavement systems, with either aggregate or topsoil/grass infill, offer solutions to many of the resulting problems with low environmental impact and high environmental benefit. These permeable systems address areas of storm water retention/control, environmental and aesthetic issues and structural support.

The properly designed and installed system can provide all load support requirements while allowing for maximum groundwater replenishment and minimizing runoff. Vegetated porous pavement systems can maintain its aesthetic appeal while preventing potential pollutants from entering the storm water system.

The Geoweb® System

With aggregate infill, the Geoweb system provides maximum load support and permeability.

  • Creates a storm water storage area that allows storm water to slowly permeate into the existing ground.
  • Minimize the impact on storm water collection systems. 
Geoweb with turf infill Turf infill is ideal with the Geoweb system when maximum load support is required and turf protection is secondary.
  • Earn  LEED™ US Green Building credits for Storm water Management by minimizing storm water runoff and promoting infiltration.
