Get the WOW factor with Colourful Paving Design @SureSetUK

Wye Valley Butterfly Zoo, recently had a bespoke paving installation after Storm Dennis cause severe damage to the popular attraction.

The main pathways were installed with a Natural Aggregate blend called Pearl Jam with features of colourful butterflies made from recycled glass, that reflects both the appearance of the tropical butterflies and the effect it creates when laid on a pathway. Incorporating a blend of recycled glass with pigments of colour, the unique finish produces a striking, bold effect for visitors to be impressed by.

There is one large silhouette of a butterfly in a bespoke “Blue Blend” which was designed to mark social distancing. The two smaller butterflies were laid in a beautiful blend of “vivid Green” and “Bright Red” to mark the directions people should walk in around the zoo.

Commenting on the resin bound Spectrum coloured butterflies, SureSet Head of Sales, Dave Shell said: “Our Spectrum range has always been a very popular choice, having endless photos of fantastic designs and comments from customers on completion. Our experience with manufacturing coloured recycled glass, as well as installing bespoke colour blends throughout the world are proven. We are pleased to be able to perform custom paving requests!”

As with all SureSet resin bound paving products, the Spectrum blends are completely permeable, allowing water to drain through the surface and so reducing surface run off and the risk of puddles forming – a key performance benefit! meaning there is no need for planning permission to be sought – in 2008, legislation was introduced which requires permission to be obtained in England for any new or re-paving project that is non-permeable.
