Category Pavingware Show all categories Pavingware is intended for structured, cement-grouted on-the-ground applications. This, for instance, excludes Flagging (found under Gardenware), which is normally not grouted. However, it does include Kerbing & Edging, which is normally grouted, but may occasionally be used without grouting, for example, as separators between flower-beds and lawns.

Products within Pavatile's pavingware ranges are modular. They are often also modular to other Pavatile ranges and to industry standard products (e.g. clay paving bricks).

Salient features and benefits of Pavatile’s Pavingware
Thickness
Strength	Most of Pavatile's block and cobble paving ranges are either 50 or 75 mm thick (or available in both options). Pavatile does not manufacture any 40 mm products, as they are not modular to other industry standard paving products such as clay brick, and because it is has further been found that the 20% difference in thickness between a 40 mm and a 50 mm block has a significant effect on load-bearing capability under normal conditions.
Consistency	The fact that this thickness is consistently maintained in manufacture ensures an even paved surface without the installer having to compensate by tampering with the bedding screed. The stability of the installation thus also ensures that the grouting will not become dislodged when compromised bedding sand finally settles evenly under uneven blocks. Why is this important?
Lateral dimensions
Modularity	The picture on the left shows how modular paving blocks lose their alignment if their design has been done without considering the effect of grouting creep. The picture on the right illustrates how the modularity of Pavatile’s blocks has been carefully designed to ensure the alignment of modules and the consistency of grouting lines.
Consistency	Variations normally occur in the sizes of cast concrete paving blocks. However, in Pavatile’s blocks, these variations are so slight that they do not impact on the installer’s ability to maintain tidy grouting lines. Why is this important?
Colour
Consistency	In Pavatile’s products, colour variations are consistent, not batch-dependent. This is achieved through special quality assurance methods.

The importance of consistency

Manufacturing to tight tolerances is important to paving contractors, since the speed, cost and quality of a paving installation can be severely affected by attempting to line up and level products which are inconsistently sized and shaped.

Pavingware types Block Paving Paving modules of which at least one side exceeds 157.5 mm* (in the case of rectangular modules). Cobble Paving Paving modules 157.5 x 157.5 mm and smaller. Kerbing & Edging Modules designed to form a division (or transition) between surfaces, e.g. between a pavement and a road, or a flower-bed and a lawn. Pool & Step Edging Modules that mark the end of a surface rather than a division between surfaces.
