4 Outdoor Paving Products for Harsh Weather
Aesthetic value is a major concern of residential and commercial clients alike. Everyone wants to ensure that their project looks the best that it possibly can and adds significant resale value to their property. However, functionality should never be underestimated. Especially as a commercial enterprise, you want to ensure that your guests, clients, and tenants are safe and comfortable during their time on your premises. If you’re undergoing a renovation or have a new construction in need of outdoor paving solutions, these four products will help ensure that your deck, terrace, or rooftop will be able to withstand any snow, rain, or hail that comes it’s way.
Porcelain Pavers
Porcelain paving tiles are some of the most durable materials available on the market for outdoor decking. We carry four unique series of porcelain paving products, and each is designed to be slip-resistant, wear-resistant, and water-resistant. This all-weather surface is produced under extreme hydraulic pressure, duplicating the forces of nature to create a high-strength paver. Porcelain pavers are great for cold climates since they can withstand repeated freezing and thawing, and their resistance to fading from UV light makes them equally great for extremely hot climates. No matter whether it’s the height of summer or the midst of a winter storm, porcelain pavers will get the job done and stay just as beautiful as when they were installed.
Snowmelt Paver Tray
When winter storms begin to hit, your rooftop bar, outdoor shopping center, or luxury pool area can be left deserted due to the freezing temperatures and mountains of snow. However, with Tile Tech’s innovative Snowmelt paver system, you can make your outdoor space clear of snow and ready for patrons in record time. The Hex-Tray Snowmelt system is easy to install and can be used with both electric and hydronic heating systems. Used in conjunction with our porcelain pavers, the Snowmelt system works by running insulated electrical heating cables along channels above the aluminum heat plates installed under the paving slabs. These plates quickly and efficiently melt the snow on the pavers, making them safe, dry, and usable for customers as quickly as possible. Since porcelain pavers can withstand repeated cycles of freezing and thawing, using our Snowmelt system in conjunction with our durable outdoor paving tiles will result in a usable space that can withstand any harsh weather.
Wind & Safety Paver Tray
When high autumn winds and their resulting severe site conditions arise, your outdoor space will require an outstanding paver system. That’s why Tile Tech has developed the innovative Hex-Tray system, an engineered paving system that is used on top of roof decks to prevent wind-uplift and provide added safety in the case of paver breakage. The patented system creates a solid paver surface that provides high wind uplift resistance by locking down the entire surface and preventing both horizontal and vertical movement. This system was designed especially for the most severe conditions, so you can rest assured that your building’s paver system is safe and secured through any harsh weather conditions.
If you want an outdoor paving solution that can withstand all seasons, rain or shine, trust Tile Tech’s industry-leading deck tiles and paver systems. Our paver trays, adjustable pedestals, and paving tiles can be customized and easily installed to create your property’s perfect outdoor paving solution.
