The Addastone TP (tree pit) systems are designed to provide an attractive and aesthetically pleasing porous paving system, using a variety of natural or recycled aggregates. Available in either Epoxy or a UV stable Polyurethane, the resin binder is mixed with a suitable natural or recycled aggregate with a typical grading of 6-10mm.
The open texture achieved provides a highly porous surface allowing the tree roots access to both air and water penetration.
Planting
The tree should be planted and anchored in urban tree soil or similar. The addition of a Greenleaf Root Rain Precinct Irrigator/Aerator and Greenleaf Root Director is also advisable.
Kerb edging and collar detail
A suitable edging detail and collar should be installed around the base of the tree and at the edges as required.
SUDS Porous Paving system for Tree Pits and Footpaths.
As Addastone Tree Pit installations are installed flush with the surrounding paving areas they have the added advantage of not becoming a litter trap that can occur with traditional tree grilles.
