Our resin-bound solutions, including Flowstone and washed pebbles, combine exceptional permeability and durability. Choose Polirock polyurethane binder for flawless white finishes that resist yellowing and outdoor wear, creating inspiring, long-lasting exterior spaces.
Understanding Permeable Surface Solutions
Permeable resin-bound systems allow rainwater to drain freely through the surface, helping to prevent puddling and surface runoff. This is especially beneficial for urban settings where flood prevention and sustainability are priorities. Products such as the Flowstone kit pair non-yellowing polyurethane or low-yellowing epoxy with carefully selected natural aggregates, offering a balance of visual appeal and long-term performance.
Washed Pebbles for Permeable Floors are favoured for their excellent drainage and effortless installation. Simply mix them with a suitable binder to form a robust, slip-resistant finish that is safe for pedestrians and vehicles alike.
To maintain bright white surfaces over time, Polirock offers superior resistance to UV rays and weather exposure. This makes it the perfect binder for designers and landscapers aiming for pristine, anti-slip areas without discolouration or degradation.

Are specific weather conditions required for resin application?
Yes, resin application requires specific climatic conditions to ensure proper adhesion and curing. It is advisable to avoid very low or very high temperatures and high humidity. For best results, follow the instructions provided with each kit or binder system.
What is a permeable floor?
A permeable floor is designed to allow rainwater to pass through it, preventing water stagnation and reducing flood risk via a special mix of granules and resin. This makes permeable floors environmentally friendly and practical for modern landscaping.
Are permeable floors suitable for high-traffic areas?
Yes, granule and resin permeable floors are robust and fit for pedestrian areas, driveways and car parks when installed according to recommendations and using the correct product combinations.
Which resin binder systems are suitable to mix with these pebbles for permeable surfaces?
The pebbles are intended for use with resin binder systems that encourage water drainage, ideal for outdoor patios and pathways. Always select the binder based on the colour and use-case of your chosen aggregate.
What quantity of Polirock binder is needed for a given area?
For stone binders like Polirock with white stones, expect a ratio of about 3% resin binder by weight of stones. For example, 13 kg of binder resin is typically required to cover 1.44 m² at 20 mm thick, using approximately 432 kg of stone.
