Low-yellowing epoxy is specifically formulated to resist the discolouration that can occur when epoxy is exposed to sunlight and outdoor conditions. It’s a popular binder for resin-bound paving systems, particularly where lasting appearance is key.
What Makes Epoxy ‘Low-Yellowing’?
Standard epoxy resins can lose clarity and develop a yellow tint over time, especially when used outdoors. Low-yellowing epoxy incorporates additives and refined resins that slow down this natural process, making it a more stable choice for aggregates with colour.
- Helps preserve the original look of coloured pebbles or stones
- Recommended for decorative outdoor installations where clarity matters
Choosing the Right Binder for Your Walkway
For classic resin-bound paving, the type of binder you use matters greatly. Low-yellowing epoxy is best suited for coloured aggregates, while polyurethane binders—such as those found in the Flowstone Complete Permeable Floor Kit—are recommended for light or white stones as they minimise yellowing even further. Always match the binder to the aggregate colour for the most enduring results.
When It’s Important to Use Low-Yellowing Epoxy
If your outdoor walkway will be exposed to regular sunlight and you want to maintain the vibrancy of coloured stones, choosing a low-yellowing epoxy binder can reduce maintenance and boost kerb appeal. It’s especially valuable on paths, patios, and decorative garden spaces where looks and longevity are equally important.
