Environmental consideration from gray infrastructure to green infrastructure! Effective utilization of discarded tiles that are thrown away as industrial waste.
Kawabata Industry's original permeable concrete "SumaCon" is an environmentally friendly floor made by utilizing waste tiles, which are considered industrial waste. It has a porous structure with many voids, excellent surface strength and flexural strength, and maintains sufficient strength as a concrete paving material over the long term. Additionally, it allows water to permeate, preventing the formation of puddles. <Environmental Performance through Heat Dissipation> The water retention of underground moisture due to its permeable function and the evaporation of moisture from the ground due to its ventilation function help suppress the rise in surface temperature caused by direct sunlight, thereby mitigating the heat island phenomenon. 【Features】 ■ Effective use of waste tiles that would otherwise be discarded as industrial waste, contributing to environmental SDGs ■ Rainwater circulation and prevention of groundwater depletion (such as ground subsidence and securing meltwater in snowy regions) ■ Permeable and ventilation functions that suppress the heat island phenomenon ■ Suitable for areas where drainage treatment is difficult due to reverse slopes ■ Permeability performance that can handle sudden heavy rain and snow ■ Available in 9 colors that enhance the aesthetic atmosphere *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
