Choosing the best fit depends on your project’s finish, drainage needs, intended use, and style.

Read on for an expert overview of each product, how they differ, and where each performs best for driveways, paths, patios, and more.

Permeable Outdoor Surfaces: Complete Kits & Pebble Selection

For homeowners and professionals seeking a ready-to-use solution, the Flowstone – Complete Permeable Floor Kit combines everything you need for a permeable, decorative, and durable outdoor surface. This comprehensive kit includes detailed resin binder guidance—for example, non-yellowing polyurethane for white aggregates and low-yellowing epoxy binder for coloured stones. It’s an ideal choice for anyone wanting a unified look with minimal guesswork.

If you wish to design your own mix, Washed Pebbles for Permeable Floors offer eco-friendly, pre-washed aggregates ready for blending with your preferred resin binder. Their 4–8 mm size and colour versatility allow for bespoke designs, whether you’re paving a meandering garden path or a stylish urban patio.

Specialist Binders: Choosing the Right Resin for Your Aggregates

The success of a pebble floor greatly depends on the compatibility between your stone choice and the resin binder. For coloured or dark aggregates, Trasparente – Epoxy Binder stands out with its crystal-clear finish, UV resistance, and low viscosity that ensures deep aggregate impregnation without bubbles. If you are using white stones and want to prevent yellowing, Polirock – Polyurethane Binder is formulated for UV and weather stability, delivering a non-yellowing, clear finish perfect for bright designs.

Both solutions are two-component systems: Trasparente is chosen for vibrant, decorative coloured pebble surfaces where clarity and colour integrity matter most, while Polirock is preferred for white or natural aggregates exposed to direct sunlight or vehicles. These binders not only secure and encapsulate your aggregate, but also maintain the natural look for years to come.

Surface Sealing: Protecting and Enhancing Concrete Floors

If your project involves sealing and safeguarding concrete, Resinstone – One-Component Resin offers a highly practical option. Unlike stone binders, this methacrylic solution is designed to penetrate deeply into concrete pores, providing a breathable, waterproof barrier that resists stains, scratches, UV rays, and chemicals. Its fast drying and ease of use makes it popular for garages, driveways, and high-traffic external surfaces seeking robust protection with minimal downtime.

While Resinstone is not suitable for binding loose pebbles or gravel, it excels at preserving the integrity and appearance of existing concrete installations—whether stamped, plain, or decorative.

Frequently Asked Questions

Flowstone kit: Which binder is suitable for white stones?

The Flowstone kit provides guidance for binder selection. Use the included polyurethane binder (Polirock) for white or clear gravel, and the low-yellowing epoxy binder for coloured or natural-tone stones. This ensures maximum colour stability and a durable finish.

Trasparente binder: Can it be poured on existing gravel?

Trasparente epoxy binder should not be poured directly onto existing gravel. The gravel must be thoroughly mixed with the binder before being laid to ensure the stones are properly encapsulated and held together for long-term durability.

Polirock usage: Is it UV stable for white stones outdoors?

Polirock is specifically formulated for outdoor use with white or light stones. It offers high UV resistance and produces a clear finish, ensuring your surfaces remain bright and stable even with regular sun exposure.

Resinstone: Is it for concrete or loose gravel?

Resinstone is designed only for sealing and protecting absorbent surfaces such as concrete. It is not suitable as a binder for loose gravel or pebble blends; for pebble binding, choose a dedicated system like Trasparente or Polirock.

Pebble selection: How many 25 kg bags do I need?

As a general guide, one 25 kg bag of Washed Pebbles covers roughly one square metre, depending on desired thickness and aggregate size. For precise project requirements, calculate based on area and your chosen layer depth.

Binder selection: Which product prevents yellowing on bright stones?

For bright or white stones, choose a polyurethane binder such as Polirock to maintain a clear, non-yellowing appearance. Epoxy binders like Trasparente are better for coloured or dark aggregates where yellowing is less of a concern.

Outdoor surfaces: Minimum temperature for resin installation?

The Flowstone system recommends a minimum installation temperature of 10°C. Applying resin below this may compromise curing quality and finished durability, so always aim for suitable weather conditions.

Resin over resin gravel: Can Resinstone seal pebble-bound floors?

Resinstone is intended for use on absorbent, porous surfaces such as concrete. To seal and protect resin-bonded aggregate floors, opt for a dedicated polyurethane varnish or a suitable epoxy topcoat, not Resinstone.
