PS Walkway Pads are designed to protect the EPDM membrane from regular foot traffic. They can be applied to the surface using pre-applied seam tape that bonds it to the membrane.
Paving Supports are ideal for paving as they are placed directly onto the membrane without any adhesives or fasteners needed.
These modular units can be stacked, allowing you to dictate the height when paving and applying tiles.
