We are thrilled to have been involved in this project at the award winning Eco Village in St Fagans, Cardiff with our BBA approved Addaset resin bound permeable surfacing system.

Addagrip approved contractor Thortech Ltd had the most amazing opportunity to work with LivEco, leading exponents of ecological and low energy house building, refurbishments, and retro fits, on the new development named as ‘Great House Farm’.

LivEco deliver sustainable homes at an affordable price which are designed and built to high environmental standards. The properties generate energy by using slimline PV panels, store energy in an in-house battery and can even transfer any excess to charge electric cars.

SURFACING REQUIREMENTS

In keeping with the requirement for high quality materials, the Thortech team installed BBA approved Addaset resin bound surfacing to create smooth, decorative, hard wearing permeable pathways and access roads across the village. A total of 325m2 of a 6mm blend New Scandinavian Pearl was installed for Phase 1 of the project to provide a stunning natural aggregate finish with excellent porosity. The Addaset resin bound system also carries a BRE Environmental Product Declaration.

The Welsh Housing Minister Rebecca Evans visited the homes and commented:

“The development showcases how developers can go over and above what is required to deliver new homes here in Wales which are as sustainable and ecologically sound as possible”.

The Phase 1 resin bound surfacing installation was completed in January 2023

Addagrip case study

Addaset-Lotte-Outlet-1Addaset resin bound surfacing was the product of choice for the pedestrian walkways at this premium shopping complex near Seoul. The 175,200 sqm Lotte retail space located in Uiwang-city, offers over 240 luxury goods and sports brands and has been designed to promote nature with its soft landscaping including a nature trail and extensive birch tree planting.

The client was looking for a smooth, contemporary aggregate surface that would be durable and low maintenance but allow for creative design with the use of bespoke blends installed in organic patterns to create decorative walkways and seating areas.

Addaset-Lotte-Outlet-3Addaset resin bound porous paving was selected using complementary blends including Scandinavian Pearl, Trent and Maple Gold to create natural aggregate mixed pattern pathways leading to an inviting grassed picnic area and providing porous paving for the aqua park. The walkways link the 10 glass houses which offer shops and cafés with a view over the lake and grassland areas. With a roof that can be opened and closed as required, this is an all weather shopping experience.

Addaset-Lotte-outlet-2The 1,563 sqm resin bound installation was carried out over 2 months and was completed in September 2021 ready for the grand opening.

Addagrip Case Study  Liverpool FC – Retail Store  

Installed by Addagrip approved contractor Soft Surfaces

2834m2 Terrabound Rhine Gold 6mm, 692m2 Terrabound Tuscan Pebble, 185m2 Addaset Lucerne Silver and 244m2 Addastone TP Tree Pit Silver Grey Granite

Completed July/August 2017                            Main Contractor Hawkspear Contracts Ltd

Addagrip LFC-RetailStore_1Addagrip approved contractor Soft Surfaces Ltd, was invited back to Liverpool Football Club, Anfield in July 2017 to carry out an installation of BBA approved resin bound surfacing for the Club’s brand new flagship Retail Store, due to open at the start of the season.

The store will offer fans a brand new shopping experience with exclusive product ranges, a specially-designed first-floor cafe and an increased number of payment stations to ease checkout congestion on match days.

Addagrip LFC1As part of the landscaped pedestrian area at the front of the new store, a robust, low maintenance, porous paving was required. Just under 4000m2 of Addagrip’s resin bound porous surfacing was selected in a range of colours to complement the design and to match the Terrabound Resin Bound surfacing previously installed at Liverpool Football Club’s newly expanded Main Stand in 2016.

 

Addagrip LFC_RetailStore_2Working with main contractor Hawkspear Contracts Ltd, the Soft Surfaces team installed Addagrip’s BBA approved Terrabound Resin Bound porous paving in blends of 6mm Rhine Gold and 6mm Tuscan Pebble which is contrasted with BBA approved Addaset Resin bound surfacing in a 6mm Lucerne Silver.  There were also a number of new trees in the scheme which required 244m2 of silver tree pits using Addastone TP in a Silver Grey Granite 6-10mm aggregate.  The tree pit surfacing was installed at a depth of 75mm due to the expected levels of foot traffic and the tree collars backfilled with loosed aggregate to accommodate growth.

The installation was completed in time for the official opening of the new retail store on Monday 14th August 2017 and the team’s first home game of the 2017/2018 season.
