AZEK Paver Literature 2013

Product catalog summary

Introduction
AZEK Pavers are innovative landscape and resurfacing pavers made from up to 95% recycled materials. They are designed to help projects earn LEED® certification more easily than traditional pavement options. These pavers offer a durable and aesthetically pleasing solution for various applications, including patios, walkways, driveways, decks, and commercial spaces.

Specifications
AZEK Pavers are available in five colors: Boardwalk, Olive, Redwood, Village, and Waterwheel. They come in different sizes and grid systems suitable for landscape, permeable, and resurfacing applications. The pavers are lightweight, less than half the weight of traditional concrete pavers, and are designed to resist cracking, staining, and impact.

Installation Procedures
AZEK Pavers use a patented grid system that simplifies installation, reducing time and effort compared to traditional pavers. The grids are placed on a compacted sand base, and the pavers are inserted into the grid in the desired pattern. A flat-plate compactor secures the pavers, and sand is swept into the joints to complete the installation.

Performance and Durability
AZEK Pavers are engineered to withstand foot traffic and low-volume vehicle traffic. They resist damage from salt, chemicals, and freeze-thaw conditions. The pavers are also slip-resistant and maintain their appearance over time, even under harsh weather conditions.

Applications
AZEK Pavers are suitable for various applications, including:

Patios and Walkways: Durable and resistant to tarnishing, ideal for creating lasting impressions.
Driveways: Designed to hold up under pressure and resist damage from environmental factors.
Deck Resurfacing: Provides a low-maintenance alternative to traditional decking materials.
Permeable Applications: Helps reduce runoff and supports LEED® certification.
Commercial Applications: Suitable for parking lots, entryways, and other landscape projects.
Flat Roof Applications: Lightweight and easy to install without additional building reinforcement.

Installation Considerations
Key considerations for installing AZEK Pavers include proper edging, optional gluing for stability, pattern installation for interlocking grids, and accounting for weathering and expansion. AZEK Pavers should not be used as fire pits, and specific cutting tools are recommended for installation.

Testing and Comparisons
AZEK Pavers have been tested for stain resistance, ease of installation, consistency, cutting and workability, durability, weight, and scratch resistance. They outperform traditional concrete pavers in these areas, offering superior durability and ease of handling.

Conclusion
AZEK Pavers represent a significant advancement in paving technology, combining recycled materials with cutting-edge engineering to provide a sustainable, durable, and versatile paving solution. They are ideal for both residential and commercial applications, offering a green alternative to traditional paving methods.
