Established in 1995, DCM Surfaces is a national contractor providing bound and bonded surfaces for new build and renovation projects, including resin bound gravel, resin bonded gravel, selfbinding gravel and rubber-gravel mix. • Resin bound gravel A high-performance SuDS-compliant, porous aggregate bound system. Available in a range of colours and blends, the surface provides an extremely hard-wearing, visually attractive finish. Unlike block paving, bound gravel is slip resistant, weed resistant, and does not sink after extended use. This makes an ideal, low-maintenance surface for driveways, pathways and walkways. • Resin bonded gravel A hard-wearing decorative surface with a textured finish. It is not porous, and the rough texture gives the surface a natural effect. Bonded gravel is applied by scattering stone gravel onto a resin base. The gravel aggregate is available in a range of colours which can be used to match existing exterior features. • Self-binding gravel An easy-to-lay alternative to traditional materials such as flags, paving, macadam or concrete. The gravel binds together when rolled to provide a self-compacted surface which is firmer underfoot than conventional loose aggregate. Self-binding gravel is suited to a wide spectrum of applications, including domestic driveways, golf courses and rural footpaths. • Rubber-gravel mix Combines the flexibility of rubber with the strength, appeal and durability of natural stone aggregate. Rubber-gravel mix can be used as a base underneath products like wet pour, artificial grass or bound gravel, or as a stand-alone surface. Porous and slip resistant, rubber-gravel mix allows for sustainable drainage in cities, towns and the countryside.

HRL offers a comprehensive range of gravel reinforcing grids providing naturally permeable paving finishes. The honeycomb grids are produced in 1.2x0.8m panels, complete with a robust weed suppressant membrane attached to the base. Simple to install, StablePAVE gravel grids substantially increase durability, prevent rutting and restrict aggregate migration. • StablePAVE TRADE StablePAVE TRADE translucent white panels have depths of 30 and 40mm for light- to medium-duty parking, pathway and landscape surfaces. The weed suppressant is overlapped to ensure a continuous protective membrane, and it is ideal for residential driveways, paths and paving. • StablePATH ECO Black StablePATH ECO Black is identical to StablePAVE TRADE 30, but black in colour, which offers a lower cost grid. Primarily utilised on pedestrian pathway construction, it is equally suitable for occasional light vehicular or maintenance traffic. • StablePAVE HD Pro StablePAVE HD Pro is a fully-interlocking, 38mm deep panel for heavier duty applications where regular traffic access and turning is anticipated. Light grey in colour for minimal visual impact, StablePAVE HD Pro provides enhanced lateral load resistance which is especially beneficial for higher point loads such as horse boxes and caravans.

Whispercast is a proprietary system for the controlled production of in-situ exposed aggregate pavement finishes. As part of the COLCHEM (Colours and Chemicals for Concrete) division of Hardscape Resourcing Limited, the concept aims to provide everything contractors and designers might need to achieve visually attractive and durable in-situ concrete hardstanding. At the core of the system is the Hebau range of self-neutralising top surface retarders which ensure a pre-determined depth of aggregate reveal. Almost as important as consistent depth of aggregate exposure is the protection of the surface after exposure. Deeply penetrating dirt and stain-resistant protective coatings form part of the system, enabling low maintenance and long-term durability of the finish. There are two major techniques involved in the production of Whispercast: Whispercast Rustique and Whispercast Surface Seeding. • Whispercast Rustique Whispercast Rustique involves exposure of the aggregate within the concrete. Controlling aggregate distribution within the mix is critical for consistent appearance at the surface and the means to achieve this is built into the system. • Whispercast Surface Seeding Whispercast Surface Seeding involves broadcasting of decorative aggregate into the concrete surface, before exposure. This is usually required where the decorative aggregate selected is not generic, so on economic grounds this offers the potential for a much wider selection of aggregate finish options.

Surface protection and maintenance is essential for long-term durability and appearance of the decorative finish. The Whispercast system incorporates a full range of protective coatings, providing UV, freeze/thaw and water-repellent protection in addition to dirt and stain resistance.

Colour addition to in-situ concrete provides an aesthetic improvement of hardstanding at a modest cost. Typical hard landscape surfaces where this is used include commercial pavements or roadways, and residential areas. HRL Colchem colour additives, decorative stains and surface etching treatments provide a wide portfolio of affordable, decorative options for these purposes. • Colchem Classic Landscape Colour Colchem Classic Landscape Colour is a pre-dosed UV-resistant colour addition system for readymixed and precast concrete, which ensures consistency and non-fading results. Eight standard classic landscape shades are produced, creating a warm coloured background to smooth-trowelled, broom-lined, sponge-textured or any traditional concrete finishes. The same system is used as a co-ordinated matrix tint for exposed aggregate pavement. • Colchem MicroETCH Colchem MicroETCH is a combination of micro retarders and etching gels producing a slipresistant decorative surface which is granular in appearance. Surfaces are etched to a depth of 0.50–1.0mm, slightly exposing the underlying aggregate, adding light and shade to the colour conditioned concrete slab.

Colchem Sienna is a finishing stain which reacts with free lime in concrete surfaces to create a permanent, variegated, natural mineral-coloured effect. There are eight standard shades, which can be applied to grey, white or coloured concrete, extending the colour palette accordingly. • Colchem Sorrento penetrating stains Colchem Sorrento is a penetrating stain available in a wide selection of colours, including an economic means of adding green and blue shades onto concrete. Stocked in eight standard colours (with a further 16 shades available to order), they are designed to be semi-translucent and offer a unique choice of coloured effects, which can range from subtle to striking. • Colorfresh and Colortec MAX Colorfresh Intensiv, Colorfresh Effect and Colortec MAX are compatible ranges of three penetrating protective coatings, available in satin sheen, matt, ‘wet’ look or invisible finishes. The stains all provide additional UV protection and dirt/staining resistance to concrete, which helps it to maintain its appearance and reduce maintenance demands. The protective coating range also includes Prowall 11, a sacrificial, anti-graffiti coating for applications where this added protection might be considered necessary.

Marley Ltd structural timber decking and associated products are designed for commercial and domestic applications. Antislip Plus® maintains the natural beauty of a timber deck while providing a durable and slipresistant surface. It provides enhanced grip where there is a high level of pedestrian traffic, making it suitable for all public access areas including decks, bridges and boardwalks. CitiDeck® is a smooth deckboard with enhanced grip. It is particularly suited to urban environments and inclusive access. The smooth board gives a level surface for wheelchair users and the less able. It is also very easy to keep clean as it does not harbour dirt. A step profile is available for use with Antislip Plus® and CitiDeck® boards. This has a wide yellow anti-slip strip for ease of visibility and secure footing.

Composition and manufacture Deck boards are manufactured from selected joinery grade European Redwood. Antislip Plus® incorporates resin-based aggregate inserts, injected into specially formed grooves in the deck board. Castellated or smooth profiles are available. CitiDeck® uses a less abrasive grit for a more even surface. Antislip Plus® and CitiDeck® are available with a choice of two or three inserts and in a variety of colours for highlighting changes in surface level. • Environmental considerations Deck boards are supplied with full chain of custody and are either FSC or PEFC accredited.

Gripsure is a leading UK manufacturer of non-slip decking, providing solutions for any application where safety is of paramount importance.

Gripsure decking comes with a 10-year non-slip performance warranty, as measured under BS7976 using the pendulum test (recommended by the HSE) and guidelines from the UK Slip Resistance Group. Decking is available directly from Gripsure or through a network of merchants across the UK and Ireland.

Composition and manufacture Gripsure manufactures a vast range of slipresistant decking boards including treated softwood, naturally durable hardwoods, innovative modified timber and low-maintenance WPC composite.

In addition, the decking has a low water absorption rate (approximately 0.5%) and is resistant to heat, woodworm, fungi and mould. • Contemporary decking The Contemporary range of decking from SAiGE is available with hollow or solid cores. The hollow range is more suitable for residential use, but due to its thicker wall structures it can also be used for light commercial applications. • Rustic decking Rustic is a range of solid core decking suitable for either commercial or domestic projects.
