Permeable pavers allow the surface to eliminate all runoff and absorb the water back into the ground. The water can also be collected and reused in different ways. This reduces your environmental footprint by filtering the water and reducing pollution from runoff.
This video from Techo Bloc shows how this process works.
We installed a system of permeable pavers along a roadside and parking lot because they were having runoff issues. There were washouts and pollutants getting into the river below. Our permeable paver system will now catch all the runoff and send it back into the ground while also filtering it.
