Pervious Concrete

Benefits of a Textured Surface

 

    Pervious concrete, lacking the fine aggregates of conventional concrete, has a unique surface texture. Made up primarily of rounded and angular aggregates such as gravel and crushed stone, it has an appearance similar to that of a rice-krispy treat.   The exposed course aggregates of pervious concrete provide enhanced traction for vehicles and prevent driving hazards such as hydroplaning. The textured surface is especially beneficial during the most difficult and dangerous of driving conditions, such as in rain and snow.
