Recycled Granite Eco Pavers™ 6"x9" Sample kit

Description

This is a sample of recycled granite landscaping pavers. One light and one
dark. They are small samples to give you an idea of the material. What is
Recycled Granite? Recycled granite pavers and tiles are created using left-
over countertop material from stone fabricators in the Chicagolandarea. We use
patented machinery to manufacture the scrap into various shapes and sizes.
100% of the granite is recycled, therefore preventing millions of pounds of
waste from entering landfills each year. How are the pavers installed?
Installation is the same as with traditional pavers. A 3”-5” gravel base and
1”-1.5” compacted sand bed for walkways and patios is typical. For driveways a
12”-14” gravel base is necessary. Polymeric sand is recommended for the joints
and seams. This permeable application is an important component in low impact
development. It minimizes impact on water quality and sustainable drainage
systems. It will also greatly reduce the opportunity for weed seeds to finda
home. Are the pavers strong? Traditional concrete pavers are 3000-5000psi. Our
recycled granite pavers are 15000 -18000 psi, making them 3 TIMES STRONGER
than concrete. The dramatic beauty and strength has been built up, layer upon
layer, over millions of years. They withstand weathering and fading far better
than any other stone available on the market. Do they quality for LEED points?
Absolutely! Recycled Granite Pavers can earn credit points in the LEED rating
system. Please consult with your LEED Accredited Professional for specific
points and rating methods. Is there a warranty? Recycled Granite provides a
lifetime guarantee on the structural integrity of its paving stones to the
original purchaser of the product for residential use. Materials installed
using our installation guidelines that proves defective will be replaced
without cost. . Proof of purchase is required.
