In a move that will provide design flexibility to architects and designers, Tectura Designs has added a four-color blending process to its portfolio of concrete rooftop, on-grade and architectural pavers. This capability, made possible by Tectura Designs’ investment in technology and manufacturing facilities, adds to the company’s portfolio of paving products and its custom capabilities.
The four-color blends provide customers creative control and the ability to create gradients with custom orders. Tectura Designs’ Stone River series is the first line to feature this four-color blending, offering six standard color blends as a demonstration of the capability.
The four-color blending technology is the latest innovation to come out of Tectura Designs’ paver manufacturing facility. Tectura has delivered pavers for more than 40 years, and the facility, which opened in 2016, gives customers more creative control, including:
- The ability to customize the color palette of any paver, and personally oversee the dye- and aggregate-mixing processes
- Standard color options and an array of finishes and surface textures
- More than 60 standard sizes, with large, thick profiles, and a range of custom options
- A selection of samples and aggregate combinations
- High performance thresholds, with H-20, H-25, HS-20 and HS-25 loading capabilities for both light and heavyweight vehicular traffic
In addition to the paver solutions outlined above, Tectura Designs has also developed a proprietary system for securing rooftop pavers. Tectura’s Lok Down product is a system that’s tested to withstand wind speeds of more than 145 miles per hour, making it an ideal solution for areas in which tall buildings experience strong wind uplift forces.
