The need for a pervious concrete paving unit that allows water to permeate the soil has become increasingly important. With more and more paved areas such as streets, parking lots and sidewalks, rainwater has little opportunity to filtrate into the soil. Municipalities now require that stormwater runoff be managed and retained.

Hanover´s Permeable Paving Units allow for stormwater drainage, managing excessive runoff. Benefits of using permeable pavers are numerous. Permeable Pavers have been proven to be very beneficial because:

· Erosion and stormwater runoff are reduced
· Land-use is increased
· Water quality is improved
· Drainage and Retention System costs are reduced
· Access for underground repairs is permitted

4" x 9"
Hanover´s NEW Permeable 4" x 9" is an ADA compliant permeable paving unit that allows for stormwater drainage and manages excess runoff. Using Hanover´s Permeable Paving Units facilitates the process of obtaining LEED Green Building certification.

EcoGrid®
Sized at 11 3/4" x 11 3/4" x 4", EcoGrid® provides 39% open space for drainage aggregate or soil for grass turf. EcoGrid® has the largest percentage of open space in the industry, allowing the most opportunity for water to permeate into the sub-soil. EcoGrid® provides the maximum percolation that a normal drainage field system will accept. Hanover´s EcoGrid® interlock for stability to support moderate vehicular traffic. Stocked in Hanover´s Natural color, EcoGrid® can also be made to order in custom colors when quantities permit.

Aqua-Loc®
Aqua-Loc® is available in a 4 1/2" x 9" x 3" unit with a score to appear as two 4 1/2" x 4 1/2" x 3" pieces. Aqua-Loc® interlocks for stability and provides open space for drainage aggregate. Aqua-Loc® will provide the project with 10.6% open space allowing water to be infiltrated at a rate of 7" to 8" per hour based on proper installation methods. Made to order in custom colors when quantities permit, Aqua-Loc® can be installed mechanically to save time and reduce costs.
