Sustainability

Enduring strength and stability

Stelcon® plates deliver exceptional sustainability that exceeds that of asphalt or poured concrete, not only enabling them to last longer but also to retain their quality over time. This reduces the need to repair or replace them, which is not only good for your finances but for the environment as well. Their robust composition makes them resistant to heavy loads and the effects of the weather, which means that they are ideally suitable for use in industrial commercial applications where sustainability is a must.

Speed of installation

Installed and ready to use in no time

Their speed of installation is one of the important advantages of Stelcon® plates when compared to asphalt and poured concrete. Their simplicity and their speed of installation keeps any disruption to everyday activities to a minimum and is ideal for projects with tight deadlines. In contrast to the long curing time of poured concrete and asphalt, Stelcon® plates are capable of bearing loads just as soon as they are installed, which saves a great deal of time in any construction or renovation project.

Maintenance

Minimal maintenance, maximum performance

Stelcon® plates require considerably less maintenance compared to asphalt or poured concrete. This not only makes them a cost-effective solution, but a time-saving choice. They are resistant to cracking and pitting, problems that frequently occur in the case of asphalt and poured concrete surfaces, so Stelcon® paving will remain intact for longer. Maintenance is therefore required less often and the long-term costs are lower.

Water infiltration

Efficient water management

The water permeability of Stelcon® plates exceeds that of asphalt and poured concrete. This not only helps them manage water more effectively, but also reduces the quantity of water draining away over the surface of the paving itself, making flooding less likely. This property is crucially important when ensuring long-term soil and water management, especially in urban and industrial areas where good water drainage is essential. It also supports the natural water cycle and helps improve the environment.

Recyclability

Leaders in the circular economy

Stelcon® plates are one step ahead of asphalt and poured concrete when it comes to recyclability. They are easy to re-use or recycle, which reduces their impact on the environment and helps them produce less waste. This circular approach not only makes Stelcon® plates an environmentally friendly choice, but also encourages sustainability within the construction sector. The ability to re-use the plates at different locations or to recycle them at the end of their service-life offers a sustainable solution that is helping to advance the movement towards a green construction sector.
