Heavy Duty Permeable Parking Lot – Biodiesel Facility

Sector

Industrial

Location

Welland, ON, CA

Before

A biodiesel facility in Welland, Ontario was looking for an affordable, durable, and permeable paving solution for a heavy-duty, high-traffic parking area in their facility. Unpaved or poorly paved industrial areas such as these are often prone to parking lot drainage problems. Additionally, they can often suffer from deep rutting and dust that require expensive dust-control products to keep conditions clean.

Preparation

The project workers prepared the area by ensuring it was smooth and stable, a good starting point for the Ecoraster E50 gravel grid installation.

Installation

The team installed a gravel-filled Ecoraster E50 grid. Thanks to the smaller surface area, typically for road shoulders, the installation of the Ecoraster system was simple and efficient.

After

The Ecoraster E50 paver grid now offers this high-traffic facility an incredibly stable and durable permeable hardscape with excellent industrial parking lot drainage. Its solid base has significantly reduced dust and stands up against rutting.

Ecoraster’s patented interlocking plastic pavers also connect together, allowing the area to be snow plowed in the winter and ensuring no movement between the individual paver grids, even when subjected to turning and torquing of the tires.
