Belgard Environmental
Booth #5
Belgard Hardscapes has been at the forefront of the Permeable Paver industry. Environmental stress is increasingly being placed on our resources. As more land is developed, the natural water filtration provided by the soil is continually being diminished. In turn, stormwater runoff – mixed with motor oil, fertilizers, and other contaminants – can pollute lakes, rivers, coastlines, and groundwater.
As part of a bio-aquifer stormwater system, Belgard Environmental permeable pavers can virtually eliminate runoff, potentially removing the need for retention ponds or underground sewer pipes.
