PERMEABLE APPLICATIONS Combined with an open-graded base, AZEK Permeable Pavers help reduce the rate and quantity of runoff in typical applications. And, an aesthetically pleasing hardscape solution made from up to 95% recycled content, AZEK Pavers help projects earn LEED certification easier than any other pavement.

3 WORK SMARTER, NOT HARDER AZEK Pavers use a patented grid system that dramatically reduces installation time and takes the frustration and difficulty out of manually setting and aligning heavy concrete pavers. Grids are placed on the same even, compacted sand base used with conventional concrete pavers. AZEK Pavers are inserted into the grid in the desired pattern - alignment is automatic. Pavers are secured using a flat-plate compactor, and finally, sand swept into the paver joints completes the installation. FINALLY, A PRODUCT THAT DELIVERS FOR LEED Most building products claim meaningful contribution to the LEED green building rating system, but don t deliver. AZEK Pavers help projects earn LEED certification easier than any other pavement. Made from up to 95% recycled materials, AZEK Pavers outperform other pavers, such as concrete pavers with fly ash, by more than ten times. AZEK Pavers can also meaningfully contribute to Stormwater Design, Regional Materials, and Waste Management. Installing AZEK Pavers is so fast you ll never want to install conventional pavers again. Pictured: Standard Paver in Redwood ENGINEERED FOR LIFE AZEK Pavers provide strength, beauty and versatility but, unlike traditional pavers, AZEK Pavers offer unique qualities only available from a highly engineered material. AZEK Pavers stand up to foot traffic and low volume vehicle traffic (e.g. driveway or parking lot). And, unlike concrete, AZEK Pavers absorb little water so they resist cracking in cold weather climates. AZEK Pavers are guaranteed for life not to crack (residential applications only). Stain- and impact-resistant, AZEK Pavers are engineered to provide durable, long lasting good looks. GREEN REVOLUTION Become part of the green building revolution by using the paver that is redefining an industry. Unchanged for 7,000 years, traditional pavers now have a superior replacement: AZEK Pavers. By combining recycled materials with cutting-edge technology, AZEK Pavers are less than one-half the weight of traditional pavers allowing AZEK Pavers to be easily used in new applications such as flat roofs and residential decking. Engineered to resist cracking and staining, AZEK Pavers are the most advanced segmented system in the world.

4 AZEK Paver Challenge See the Difference for Yourself. Compare AZEK Pavers to traditional concrete pavers and you ll quickly see why AZEK Pavers are superior. STAIN RESISTANCE TEST Start with one clean concrete paver and one clean AZEK Paver. Apply a small drop of ketchup and oil onto each paver. Allow liquids to sit on the AZEK Paver while quickly wiping off the ketchup and oil from the concrete paver. Upon wiping concrete paver, notice stain marks left by the liquids due to the porosity of the concrete that allows the liquids to be absorbed into the paver. Then wipe the ketchup and oil from the AZEK Paver to reveal no stain marks left behind. This stain resistance is due to the composition of rubber and plastics designed to deter even the most stubborn stainmakers. DURABILITY TEST Using a hammer or another brick hit a corner of the concrete paver and see what happens to the edges when hit with something solid. Strike the AZEK Paver or throw it on the ground to see and demonstrate its durability. AZEK Pavers resist degradation over time and loss of material when handling. AZEK Pavers retain their outstanding appearance longer than traditional pavers. EASE OF INSTALLATION Compare the time and labor savings to install AZEK Pavers vs. concrete pavers: No need to take the time to string lines to ensure aesthetically pleasing straight runs of concrete pavers. No more setting individual pavers using a rubber mallet or dead blow hammer to create a level surface with concrete pavers. Concrete pavers may individually shift or move until sand is placed between them. AZEK Pavers insert easily into the specially designed grid system to ensure perfect alignment every time while securely holding them square and consistently spaced. Overlapping AZEK Pavers from grid to grid ties the entire system together making it uniform and secure. CUTTING AND WORKABILITY AZEK Pavers are easily handled and cut in the field as compared to concrete pavers. AZEK Pavers do not require the need to rent or purchase expensive specialized cutting equipment. There is no need for a water source to cut AZEK Pavers as is often required for cutting traditional concrete pavers. There is no worry of inhaling airborne concrete dust particles when cutting AZEK Pavers. The AZEK Pavers can be easily cut individually by using a traditional miter saw (with proper blade) or cut in place after being installed into the grid system using a traditional jig saw (with proper blade). Radius cuts are also possible using a jig saw. Use of traditional saws allows installers to have multiple saws on site to ease and speed installation. AZEK Paver after being hit with hammer Traditional paver after being hit with hammer Before With Ketchup and Cooking Oil WEIGHT TEST Stack and weigh 11 concrete pavers: 11 concrete pavers = 64 pounds and covers 2.4 square ft. Stack AZEK Pavers and Grids to equal 64 pounds, which is 32 pavers and 4 grids and covers 7.1 sq ft. This illustrates how easy it is to carry up to three times the amount of AZEK Pavers as concrete pavers. Using a string to keeps pavers straight with traditional pavers Tamping traditional pavers in place with mallet AZEK Paver being cut with miter saw Cutting concrete paver with traditional saw After SCRATCH RESISTANCE TEST Push the flat end of a screwdriver across the surface of both a traditional concrete paver and an AZEK Paver. Notice that the concrete paver scratches easily and the AZEK Paver resists scratches. After Scratch Resistance Test, notice scratches on traditional paver while AZEK Paver resisted scratching 11 Pavers = 64 Pounds 32 Pavers + 4 Grids = 64 Pounds Place AZEK Pavers in patented self-aligning grid Installation grids ensure a straight, level layout every time. CONSISTENCY TEST Look at the edges of each type of paver. Compare aesthetic quality of broken concrete paver edges vs. smooth clean AZEK Paver edges. Think about wear and tear on hands while handling and installing sharp edges vs. finished edges.

Complete installation instructions are available on azekpavers.com. Edging For a more secure fit, install standard paver edging around the perimeter of the patio or walkway. You may need to remove some topsoil to ensure that the landscape edging is flush with the top of the pavers. Fasten edging with metal spikes every foot and backfill the sod for a clean look. Gluing (Optional) To reduce movement of the pavers, such as on stairs or in front of doorways, use a solvent based construction adhesive that is compatible with plastics. Follow the manufacturer s recommendations and apply the adhesive to pavers as shown above. See azekpavers.com/glue for details. Patterns Properly installed patterns provide an individual touch to your projects and allow pavers to interlock installation grids increasing stability and durability. Make sure grids are laid correctly to ensure pavers interlock each grid in all directions. See azekpavers.com for pattern details. Cutting Jigsaw (6 amp or greater) with a wood cutting blade 5- to 10-tooth per inch 10 power mitre saw (10 24-tooth carbide tipped blade, Teflon or other coating recommended) Weathering AZEK Pavers color and finish will weather over a period of three to six months. This process may take considerably longer in areas of heavy shade or reduced sun exposure. Weathering is completely harmless and does not affect durability. Expansion AZEK Pavers will expand and contract with temperature change. See azekpavers.com/ expansion for installation recommendations. Fire Pits AZEK Pavers are not to be used as fire pits. Ensure that there is a minimum of four feet from any open flame. Standard charcoal or gas grills may be placed on top of AZEK Pavers. Rock, gravel or other concrete products can be used to provide border between the fire pit and AZEK Pavers.
