Waterwise & Council Aligned Permeable Paving for Perth & WA

Resin bound permeable paving is a fully Waterwise aligned surface designed to support council stormwater requirements, reduce runoff, and improve on site drainage. With high permeability rates and proven technical performance, it’s an ideal solution for residential, commercial, and public realm projects across Western Australia.

At Resibound, we install resin bound systems engineered to meet the expectations of councils, planners, engineers, and sustainability officers.

Why Councils Choose Permeable Resin‑Bound Paving

✔ Fully Waterwise Compliant

Supports Waterwise landscaping principles and sustainable stormwater management.

✔ High Permeability Rates

Allows water to drain through the surface and into the ground, reducing runoff and improving infiltration.

✔ UV‑Stable & Long‑Lasting

Aliphatic polyurethane resin prevents yellowing, fading, and surface breakdown under WA’s high UV exposure.

✔ Strong & Crack‑Resistant

The flexible resin system handles ground movement and vehicle load without cracking.

✔ Low Maintenance

No loose stones, no weeds, no grout lines, ideal for public spaces.

✔ Suitable for Public & Commercial Use

Perfect for footpaths, shared spaces, verges, tree surrounds, and pedestrian areas.

Applications for Council & Public Projects
