Depending on the application and the builder's wishes, different finishes are possible with Terradec. Below you will find a description of one of the possible finishes with the corresponding properties. On the page with the overview of all Terradec systems you can also compare the properties of the different finishes in a comparison table.
Terradec Budget Strong
Budget friendly, but discoloring, permeable paving, ideal for lower load areas such as around trees and walkways. The floor consists of natural granules bonded with an aromatic PU binder. The minimum installation height of this system is 3cm. around trees, however, 5cm is usually placed.
Discoloration of the binder usually occurs in the first 2 months after placement. After that, the discoloration will slowly recede. Because this process does not happen evenly everywhere because of shade or a canopy, we recommend working only with pebbles where this effect is only minimally noticeable. That is, only about 4 colors in quartz qualify.
Despite the fact that the water permeability of the Terradec system itself is super high, it also depends on the type of substrate. How much the Terradec's water permeability is on various substrates was tested by the OCW (Public Center for Road Construction in Belgium). Under the heading
