← Back to Which kit should I buy for resin bound gravel?

If you’re seeking a surface for driveways, patios, or paths that avoids pooling and supports sustainable drainage, a permeable resin bound gravel solution is the ideal choice. These systems combine attractive stone with specialised resins to create a durable, water-draining finish fit for the UK climate.
How Permeable Resin Bound Floors Work
Permeable resin bound gravel floors consist of natural pebbles mixed with a resin binder. Unlike traditional solid paving, this mix leaves tiny gaps, allowing rainwater to flow through the surface and disperse into the ground underneath. Not only does this help prevent puddles and reduce local flooding risk, but it also keeps driveways and paths functional in all weathers.
- Reduces water stagnation
- Helps meet modern drainage and planning preferences
- Creates a continuous, decorative and slip-resistant surface
Choosing the Right Permeable Solution Kit
For a reliable, all-in-one option, the Flowstone Complete Permeable Floor Kit offers everything you need to install a draining surface. Each kit includes resin matched to your chosen pebble colour, with non-yellowing polyurethane recommended for light aggregates and low-yellowing epoxy for coloured stones. Make sure to check guidance on quantities and binder selection for your design.
When Permeable Solutions Matter
Opting for a permeable system is especially important if your project is at risk of surface water build-up or needs to comply with drainage requirements. It’s also a practical choice for areas expected to receive plenty of use, as properly installed resin bound floors are robust enough for footpaths, patios, and even driveways.
