Free membership registrationWe will explain the reasons why the "permeable and water-retaining blast furnace slag pavement (color sand)" has maintained its paving functionality even after more than 15 years since installation. Color sand meets all five "pavement requirements" expected for pedestrian areas and maintains high performance among pedestrian pavements. The characteristic of the blast furnace water-quenched slag used as aggregate, "latent hydraulicity," not only enhances strength but also provides excellent permeability and water retention due to its porous structure. Furthermore, to prevent the deterioration of the pavement surface, it releases pressure caused by the volume expansion of moisture during freezing, which occurs due to repeated freeze-thaw cycles in winter. For more information, including "representative examples of sites that have maintained paving functionality for over 15 years," please refer to the external links. 【Technical Information Introduction】 ■ 20 years since the development of color sand ■ High performance maintained as pedestrian pavement ■ Technical reasons for maintaining paving functionality after more than 15 years / representative examples of sites *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or external link pages, or feel free to contact us.

Free membership registrationThis document explains the characteristics and benefits of the blast furnace crushed slag used in "permeable blast furnace slag pavement (color sand)." The "blast furnace crushed slag" used as aggregate in our paving materials is a byproduct generated simultaneously when producing pig iron from a blast furnace at major steel manufacturers. It can be easily separated as it floats on top of the molten pig iron. In addition to contributing to environmental load reduction, it has characteristics such as excellent gradation balance due to its uniform particle size. Further explanations on topics such as "What is steel slag?" and "Characteristics and general uses of blast furnace slag" can be found through external links. 【Technical Information Introduction】 ■ What is "steel slag"? ■ Characteristics and general uses of "blast furnace slag" ■ Reasons for adopting "blast furnace crushed slag" - Environmental load reduction, porous shape, latent hydraulicity, high internal friction angle, uniform particle size, safety *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or external link pages, or feel free to contact us.

Free membership registrationThis document explains the technical basis for the permeability coefficient in "permeable blast furnace slag pavement (colored sand)." Our paving materials use granulated blast furnace slag as a raw material, which falls under the classification of sand and gravel. Therefore, we conducted the "constant head permeability test" to measure the permeability coefficient. The result of the constant head permeability test showed a measured value of 2.56×0.01 cm/sec. Thus, the required permeability coefficient for the sidewalk area in terms of "permeability" is a public standard value of 1.0×0.01 cm/sec. Our material exceeds this standard value by more than double, proving that it sufficiently meets the permeability performance required for sidewalk areas. [Overview] ■ The permeability coefficient was measured in accordance with the "Soil Permeability Testing Method" based on JISA1218. - Constant head permeability test... Applied to soils with relatively high permeability coefficients (sand and gravel). - Falling head permeability test... Applied to soils with relatively low permeability coefficients (clay, silt, etc.). ◎ Exceeds the standard value and sufficiently meets the permeability performance required for sidewalk areas. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or external link page, or feel free to contact us.

Free membership registrationThis document explains the technical basis for the "permeable and water-retaining blast furnace slag pavement (color sand)" being compliant with "universal design." The target value for slip resistance is set at BPN 40 or higher on wet surfaces, and the color sand pavement exceeds 62, thus meeting the target value. Additionally, as it is a site-cast pavement, it does not pose obstacles for pedestrians and wheelchair users, allowing for smooth curved construction, making it suitable for wheelchair users and visually impaired individuals. Furthermore, it excels in shock absorption, permeability, and water retention, with the main factors contributing to overall "walkability" being elasticity, foot feel, and slip resistance. It is stated that when selecting walking surfaces, it is necessary to evaluate overall ease of walking and running. **Features** - Exceeds the target value for slip resistance - Allows for smooth curved construction - Excellent shock absorption and soft walking sensation - Maintains permeability without creating puddles that hinder walking - Highly superior in water retention capacity and retention time due to its porous structure *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or external link pages, or feel free to contact us.*

Free membership registrationWe will explain the technical basis of the "Permeable and Water-retaining Blast Furnace Slag Pavement (Color Sand)" that achieves both permeability and water retention. All of our paving materials use "water-quenched blast furnace slag" as the main aggregate. The aggregate itself has a fine porous structure, allowing it to provide both permeability and water retention. While typical permeable paving materials allow water to pass through at "points," our paving materials enable permeability across "surfaces" due to the nature of the aggregate itself, resulting in less clogging and maintaining permeability performance over a long period. Additionally, by cleaning with high-pressure washers, the permeability can be restored to about 80%. Further explanations regarding "permeability performance" and "water retention performance" can be found through external links. 【Introduction to Technical Information】 ■ Reasons for achieving both permeability and water retention ■ Permeability performance ■ Water retention performance ■ Our product lineup *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or external link pages, or feel free to contact us.

Free membership registrationThis document explains the benefits of "permeable and water-retaining blast furnace slag pavement (colored sand)" during the winter season. Not only does it function as a measure against summer heat, but its permeability and water retention capabilities also provide benefits in winter. There is less freezing after the snow melts, and the porous structure of the "granulated blast furnace slag" used as aggregate absorbs the expansion pressure during freezing through countless voids, making it resistant to freeze-thaw cycles. Even if the retained water freezes, the durability of the surface does not decrease. Further explanations on "effects of winter permeability and water retention functions," "suppression of the summer heat island phenomenon," and "our product lineup and examples of use" can be found through external links. 【Technical Information Introduction】 ■ Suppression of the "heat island phenomenon" in summer ■ Effects of winter permeability and water retention functions - Less freezing after snow melts - Easier snow removal - The water retention function moistens the dry winter air ■ Our product lineup and examples of use *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or external link pages, or feel free to contact us.

Free membership registrationThis document explains the installation of the "filter layer" in "permeable high furnace slag pavement (color sand)." The pavement structure of color sand utilizes "water-quenched slag for civil engineering" as the filter layer. Since this "artificial sand" is produced at steelworks of major steel manufacturers, it has minimal quality variation and possesses characteristics not found in natural soil. This water-quenched slag is porous and has an angular shape, providing important geotechnical engineering features such as "lightweight," high "shear resistance," and "permeability." **Effects of Using Water-Quenched Slag for the Filter Layer:** - The particles have a porous shape, resulting in excellent permeability and water retention. - There is no strength reduction due to infiltrating water, and even if the moisture content decreases, no settlement occurs. - With a design CBR of over 20%, strong support capacity is achieved. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or external link pages, or feel free to contact us.*

Free membership registrationThis document explains the reasons why "permeable and water-retaining pavement materials (color sand)" are strong against "freeze-thaw" cycles. Color sand is a pedestrian pavement material that possesses permeable and water-retaining functions while being sufficiently resistant to the repeated effects of freeze-thaw cycles during winter, making it "strong against frost damage." Among our pavement composition, the "filter layer" made from high furnace slag pavement, when used alone, has a significant effect in suppressing "frost heave phenomena." Furthermore, in freeze-thaw tests conducted at the Central Testing Laboratory of the Building Materials Testing Center, no cracking or destruction occurred even after completing 200 cycles. 【Excellent Features of the Aggregate (High Furnace Slag)】 ■ Porous Structure - Numerous fine voids release pressure caused by volume expansion during freezing. ■ Potential Hydraulic Properties - The main components of water-cooled slag (silica, alumina, lime, magnesia) solidify over time due to repeated water penetration. ◎ Sufficiently resistant to the repeated effects of freeze-thaw cycles. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or external link pages, or feel free to contact us.

Free membership registrationThe permeable and water-retaining paving material "Color Sand" utilizes finely porous aggregate "Blast Furnace Water-quenched Slag," achieving high permeability and water retention as a landscape paving material. Depending on environmental conditions, its durability is approximately 15 to 20 years. It has a texture similar to soil, making it easy to blend into natural landscapes as "slag pavement." Choosing a gray tone can match urban landscapes as well. It allows rainwater to permeate and return to the ground, alleviating the "heat island phenomenon" in urban areas. There have been instances where surface temperatures were about 10°C lower compared to asphalt paving. It is designed to minimize puddles and has a high slip resistance, making it easy to walk on even during and after rainfall. 【Features】 ■ Excellent functionality (permeability, water retention, freeze resistance, durability, slip resistance) ■ Utilizes aggregates designated for procurement under the Green Purchasing Law, with a recycling rate of over 80% ■ Meets the "surface requirements" needed for sidewalks and bicycle paths ■ Over 1,800 instances of adoption in "public works" ordered by municipalities nationwide ★ Currently, we are offering a "case study collection" for parks and architectural landscaping. You can view it immediately via the 【PDF download】.

These components are mixed and compacted using a roller machine to finish the product. It allows precious water resources of the Earth, namely "rainwater," to permeate and be replenished underground, mitigates the "heat island phenomenon" in urban areas, revives spring water, promotes the growth of trees and flowers, and contributes to the creation of urban environments rich in "water and greenery." 【Features】 ○ Excellent permeability ○ No "puddles" during rainfall, non-slip ○ Mitigates the heat island phenomenon ○ Maintains high "water retention" ○ Soft walking sensation For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.
