COMPREHENSIVE STRENGTH
PAVE ESPANIA manufatures pavers with:
1. Cement-rich face mix (Dual Layer Technology).
2. Selected wear resistant aggregates in face mix.
3. Superior mix designs.
4. Appropriate quality mixing.
5. Optimum compaction.
6. Adequate early curing
WATER ABSORPTION
PAVE ESPANIA pavers have low water absorption. High water absorption reduces the life and quality of the pavers and is also a major contributor of moss and algae growth. This leads to blackening of the paver making them look undesirable.
Average water absorption should be less than 6% by weight and no individual block should have water absorption over 7%.
High quality controls and machinery ensure highly diversified pavers with low water absorption rate.
TOLERANCE IN DIMENSIONS
Ensures the quality of interlocks, straightness of lines and prevents individual blocks in a pavement from sagging.
Tolerance of +/- 2 mm on length and width and +/- 3 mm for thickness. Thickness of wearing layer should be 6 mm with tolerance of +/- 2 mm.
At PAVE ESPANIA , only moulds from special high grade steel is used to give the best dimensional accuracies in the industry. Regular in-process checks include recording of each dimension, flatness, straightness etc..
