UCSB has been constantly installing the pavers in new areas, with the most recent project being in front of Carillo Dining Commons. Continuing to use the SB Tan color, this area incorporates a pattern of 6x12 and 6x6 Estate series Pavers.
The great thing now is that projects in the area have seen what Hydro-Flo Pavers have done on the UCSB campus and are now beginning to use these unique permeable pavers to serve other sites around the city of Santa Barbara. The IV Loop and Santa Ynez apartment complexes have chosen to do just that.
With the one decision to incorporate Hydro-Flo Pavers into their extensive plaza and walkways, these apartment complexes are committing to "green" their previously impervious walking surfaces. These pavers will impact the community for many years to come as they have the potential to return millions of gallons of water to aquifers over the course of their lifetime. In addition, there will be some hidden benefits as well, such as reducing the slip hazard present on hardscape surfaces. The IV Loop Project even features our new 8x16 Pavillion Paver in our Grey/Charcoal Color. Keep your eyes open for More Hydro-Flo Projects on the way! You'll really have to watch closely, since you can hardly tell our standard pavers from Hydro-Flo!
