Controlling and managing stormwater runoff from impervious surfaces is a growing challenge. Presto offers a complete line of cost-effective, quality permeable pavement options for a wide range of pedestrian and vehicular loading requirements. Porous pavers and permeable solutions include grass, aggregate and hard-surface pavements.

With four permeable options to choose from, the Geoblock®, GeoPave™, Geoweb® and FilterPave™ systems provide structural support and a full range of aesthetic choices ranging from cool grass surfaces to economical aggregate surfaces to architecturally-aesthetic recycled glass surfaces.

Low Environmental Impact: The highly permeable surfaces maximize groundwater replenishment, reduce stormwater runoff, and reduce or eliminate the requirements and costs for stormwater ponds or underground stormwater storage systems. With permeable infill, the systems also perform as a natural on-site stormwater detention/retention storage "basin" and economical stormwater Low Impact Developments (LIDs) Best Management Practices (BMPs) for managing stormwater on-site.
