This November Long Rake Spar were pleased to be involved in the creation of 1400sqm of Rustic looking resin bound porous pathways and garden areas for a crematorium in Richmond, London
The Crematorium had recently undergone re-landscaping at the front of the building and it was decided to replace the existing loose gravel walkways, which were uncomfortable underfoot when wet and presented issues with migrating gravel.
They wanted a natural looking, porous product that was aesthetically pleasing and low maintenance and selected Addagrip’s Terrabase Rustic Resin Bound surfacing system having seen it at Highgate Cemetery.
We supplied our specialist dried aggregates from our Grantex range, to create the Terrabase Rustic Gold blend which provides warm looking and inviting pathways that allow visitors to spend time walking the grounds.
As the resin bound porous paving system can be installed without the need for a concrete or asphalt base it can be done with the minimum of disruption and noise which was imperative to allow services at the crematorium to continue. Drainage was also a key requirement of the system and the 6-10mm stones we supplied in this bound system provide maximum porosity.
