Interlocking block (ILB)

With its superb water permeability and filter performance, Needle Punched MARIX helps create comfortable puddle-free pavements with no unevenness.

  • 「アピール」使用Where Needle Punched MARIX is usedNeedle Punched MARIX precludes the loss of sand caused by rain water, thus preventing unevenness in the blocks.
  • 「アピール」不使用Where Needle Punched MARIX is not usedSince Needle Punched MARIX is not used, the loss of sand is caused by rain water, leading to unevenness in the blocks.

  • With its filter performance (separation effect), Needle Punched MARIX prevents the base course material from mixing with soft subgrade soil, providing the ability to support the pavement.
