Formpave is providing 8,000m2 square metres of Golden Brindle and Charcoal Grey block paving from its Royal Forest collection. In addition, the company is supplying Red Brindle permeable paving incorporating its Aquaflow Sustainable Urban Drainage System (SUDS).

David Wilson Homes specified Formpave’s SUDS system to meet sustainable criteria under the Code for Sustainable Homes and BREEAM and to reduce the risk of local flooding.

David Wilson Homes’ project manager Daniel Pavely said: “Formpave offers a large range of paving options and colours which meant they were able to provide the perfect paving to complement the new homes and the surrounding area.”
