 EP Henry's Eco Pavers, are paving stones specifically designed to allow rainwater to drain directly into the ground. It is one of our environmental products used to keep rain water on-site.
Green Construction has become very popular. Being "Green" means different things to different people but centers around: energy efficiency, recycling, and responsible use of our natural resources, including rainwater. In our culture, we love to pave over everything. As a result, most of the rain water can't get back into the ground or natural hydraulic cycle. During large storms, most water runs-off - into our storm sewers, down to our creeks and rivers, causing erosion and flooding problems. This happens several times each year in the Philadelphia region. To prevent these storm problems it's best for rain water to go back into the ground – its called "direct infiltration" – it's good for the environment, and it can be accomplished using Eco Pavers.
Many towns impose restrictions on how much the ground can be covered with impervious surface (buildings, structures, paving, and even swimming pools). So we need a good environmental solution for homeowners, developers, and designers that are working on new construction projects. Eco Pavers provide a paved surface that drains and a storm water solution; all in one. Let's not forget the great aesthetic value to paving with EP Henry products, available in a variety of color blends and textures.
