Bosun introduces new paving finishes
Bosun has built a name through supplying innovative paving products like the Large and XXL Urban pavers. Now Bosun is set to introduce a new range of beneficiated paving units.
A new press technology manufacturing plant and beneficiating line is currently en route from Germany. Construction of a new custom built facility, adjacent to their other factories in Midrand commenced in the beginning of 2013. The new plant is envisaged to be fully operational by the end of July 2013.
According to David Wertheim Aymes, CEO of the Bosun group, this new equipment will produce paving finishes such as exposed aggregate, ground concrete and shot-blast concrete.
Unique finishes and textures
Apart from this, most of the finishes will also be offered on selected interlocking pavers, in order to create unique textures on interlocking paving products that can be integrated from parking areas and roadways, into walkways and boulevards.
The new Press Technology plant will however produce pavers with a unique, smooth topping layer, which could also be finished in the same way as the Urban and interlocking pavers described above. The Press Technology range will also be available in an ultra-smooth polished option in various thicknesses.
Certain kerb shapes will also be available in an exposed finish to cater for aesthetically pleasing road edging to match or contrast driveways, walkways or commercial road surfaces.
Another exciting development is that Bosun's range of large pavers, some of which measure up to 27 times the size of standard paving bricks, will now also be available in a calibrated option. Calibrating is the process of diamond cutting the product to exact thicknesses. This will ensure total dimensional accuracy and will make the product installation much quicker and easier and yield an aesthetically pleasing and flat surface.
