Tobermore Hydropave Fusion Duo 60mm Permeable Block Paving

Tobermore Hydropave Fusion Duo 60mm is permeable block paving with an exposed granite aggregate finish. The textured surface gives it a more pronounced stone-grain appearance, and the square and rectangular blocks let you vary the pattern across the driveway.

Choose Graphite for a darker scheme, Oat for a warm neutral or Silver for a lighter grey. Both block sizes are supplied in the selected colour, so you can use the same finish throughout the driveway.

Key features

• Exposed granite aggregate adds visible texture across the face of the block.
• Two block sizes supplied together for a mixed-size layout.
• Permeable joints let rainwater pass through to the layers beneath when correctly installed.

Benefits

Fusion Duo works well where you want the paving texture to stand out next to plain brickwork or rendered walls. If you prefer a smoother surface in the same two-size format, see Hydropave Shannon Duo.

Permeable driveway installation

Use a permeable sub-base, bedding layer and clean jointing aggregate specified for the driveway. The base design depends on your ground conditions and where the water can drain. Follow Tobermore’s installation guidance or ask your installer to confirm the build-up before ordering.

Ordering and delivery

Quantity 1 is one full 12.87 m² pack. A 30 m² driveway needs at least three full packs, before accounting for cuts. Allow for any additional blocks needed at edges and around drains. Bedding, jointing aggregate, sub-base and edging are supplied separately.

If you need help working out how many packs to order, contact UK Building Supplies with your driveway measurements. Browse the full Tobermore paving range.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between Fusion Duo and Shannon Duo?

Fusion Duo has a textured, exposed granite aggregate face. Shannon Duo has a smoother finish. Both have the same 12.87 m² pack coverage.

Can I use ordinary kiln-dried sand in the joints?

Use the clean jointing aggregate specified for the Hydropave system. The joints need to stay open enough for water to pass into the bedding layer.
