Ecoraster North America

Ecoraster® pervious paving products are made from 100% recycled plastic bags, effectively keeping millions of non-degradable bags out of public landfills. Because it can be filled with natural land cover like grass, Ecoraster helps reduce the “Heat Island Effect”, where higher city temperatures result from non-permeable surfaces like asphalt and concrete absorbing instead of reflecting the sun’s energy. This is helps reduce air pollution levels, heat-related illness and fatalities, and the extra pressure put on our energy generation network. Ecoraster’s® environmentally sustainable permeability allows surface water to soak through the soil and plants, which do an excellent job of filtering out pollutants, helping maintain ground water quality and avoiding environmental problems caused by storm water runoff. By providing a solid structure for soil, Ecoraster® prevents soil compaction, further decreasing storm water runoff and preventing soil erosion.
