The need for a pervious concrete paving unit that allows water to permeate the soil
has become increasingly important. Our municipalities now require that rain and storm water runoff be controlled and
retained. Hanover's EcoGrid® Paver and Aqua-Loc® are permeable paving units which manage runoff while allowing
moderate vehicular traffic. The use of permeable pavers has been proven to be very beneficial because:
- Erosion and storm water runoff are reduced
- Water quality is improved
- Project costs for drainage and retention systems is reduced
- Access for underground repairs is permitted
- Efficiency of land-use is increased
 EcoGrid®
Sized at 11 3/4" x 11 3/4", Hanover® EcoGrid® Pavers
will provide the project with 39% open space for turf or drainage aggregate. EcoGrid® Pavers have the largest percentage of
open space in the industry, allowing the most opportunity for water to permeate into the sub-soil.
EcoGrid® Receives Product of the Year
Barrington, Illinois — Commercial Building Products
magazine, the only magazine serving the low-to-mid-rise, non-residential constuction markets, is pleased
to announce its annual Reader's Choice Awards for building product manufacturers. Each year, Commercial Building Products tabulates readers interest, through
reader service response, internet direct links, and electronic reader-service requests, to determine
those products that are of the greatest readers to our readers. All advertising, product or literature releases, and
promotional items are included and Hanover's EcoGrid® Paver was one of the top 50 inquiry-producing items that
appeared in the magazine during 2005.
"Considering the number of new products that
are introduced on an annual basis and how important they are for the Building Owner, who is interested
in the return of investment; the Architect, who is interested in project design qualities; and the Contractor,
who is interested in the cost, ease of installation, and reducing the number of 'call-backs', it is truly significant
when products are recognized by all three groups as making a notable contribution to their construction efforts."
said Jim Losh, Publisher and President of Commercial Building Products.
The Product of the Year awards program is designed to recognize those building product manufacturers
who develop and deliver top-of-the-line products that help buyers, specifiers, and influencers build
better commercial facilities.

Hanover's NEW Aqua-Loc® Brick 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.
