Overview:

Uses glass and ceramic wastes as aggregate. Features abrasion resistance, ventilation, permeability, water preservation, heat insulation, and sound absorbency as well as stability.

Permeability and ventilation increase water-preservation of the stratum, also facilitates in draining floods and controlling temperature.

Porous aggregate composite provides sound absorption by preventing indoor echoes.

Rough surface helps prevent slips to enhance walking safety.

Product Description:

EP Bricks are composed of recycled glass and ceramic wastes, mixed together with high-molecule compounds in computer-aided temperature controlled procedures.

EP Construction Materials are capable of diffusing water into the earth, not only providing flood assistance but also contributing to temperature control.
