FlowPave Permeable Paving
Firth FlowPave is one of the paver options in the Firth EcoPave® Permeable Paving Range. The paver has enlarged nibs on all four sides which creates wider than usual gaps around each paver. This space allows water to filter through to the underlying drainage medium.

- Recharges natural groundwater and aquifers.
- Improves hydrological response of stormwater peak flow by holding and releasing in a controlled manner.
- Filters runoff water by removing heavy metals such as zinc and copper through cationic exchange when using greywacke sub-base drainage aggregates.
