StreetPrint™ Features and Benefits
Around the world we have found that there are several important features which have resulted in StreetPrint's success. The following are some of the features and benefits of StreetPrint.
- Flexible Pavement – StreetPrint is a flexible pavement which makes it resistant to cracking and eliminates the need for expansion joints compared with imprinted Portland Cement concrete.
Continuous Surface – StreetPrint is a continuous, waterproof surface which resists weed growth and inhibits the migration of water to the base thereby reducing the possibility of base failures due to erosion or freeze-thaw cycles. StreetBond also reduces the effects of weathering from water, freeze-thaw cycles and sun (ultra violet exposure).
- Easy Maintenance – StreetPrint is easily repairable and has low maintenance costs.
Salt Resistance – StreetPrint does not react to salt used for deicing or from salt air in coastal climates. Portland Cement concrete products including cement bricks can spall and degrade through the reaction of the cement with salt.
- Quick Installation – StreetPrint can be installed very quickly (as much as 10 times faster than cement bricks) resulting in much less disruption to traffic.
- Elaborate Decorative Patterns – StreetPrint makes it practical to create embossed artwork in the surface. This can be done quickly and easily and creates a whole new opportunity for decorative pavement designers. The photo below demonstrates how both brick and non-brick StreetPrint can be used. This project was installed in Las Palmas, Canary Islands in January of 1998 at the International Licensee Conference. StreetPrint™ embossed artwork combined with StreetPrint™ brick patterns.
