Introducing technical information about permeable blast furnace slag pavement "Color Sand"!
This document explains the technical basis for the permeability coefficient in "permeable blast furnace slag pavement (colored sand)." Our paving material uses granulated blast furnace slag as a raw material, which falls under the classification of sand and gravel. Therefore, we conducted a "constant water level permeability test" to measure the permeability coefficient. The result of the constant water level permeability test showed a measured value of 2.56×0.01 cm/sec. Thus, the required permeability coefficient for the sidewalk area in terms of "permeability" is a public standard value of 1.0×0.01 cm/sec. Our measured value exceeds this standard by more than double, proving that our permeable paving material sufficiently meets the required permeability performance for the sidewalk area. [Overview] ■ The permeability coefficient was measured in accordance with the "Soil Permeability Testing Method" based on JISA1218. - Constant water level permeability test: Applicable to soils with relatively high permeability coefficients (sand and gravel). - Variable water level permeability test: Applicable to soils with relatively low permeability coefficients (clay, silt, etc.). ◎ Exceeds the standard value and sufficiently meets the required permeability performance for the sidewalk area. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or external link pages, or feel free to contact us.

Company information
The permeable and water-retaining pavement materials developed by Sanwa Grand Co., Ltd. allow rainwater, an invaluable water resource for the Earth, to permeate and be returned to the ground, thereby alleviating the "heat island phenomenon" in urban areas during the summer, reviving spring water, promoting the growth of trees and flowers, and regenerating "moisture of water and greenery" in the city, creating a pavement that is friendly to both people and nature. Our company aims to contribute to society as a member of a company that creates a comfortable environment through the dissemination of these environmentally friendly pavement materials, which excel in permeability and water retention. Our pavement materials are also ideal for areas with high social needs, such as "barrier-free," "disaster evacuation routes," "weed control measures," and "school route maintenance."
