Inner-city residential areas
Hörnlistraße, Münchwilen (CH)
A high groundwater level generally thwarts all eco-paving plans, as the cleaning process of the seepage water requires at least 2 m from the top edge of the pavement. Stone systems from the GDM.DRAIN stone proActive line with aBG reduce the distance to 1 m because their paving surface works like a small sewage treatment plant. In this way, the low-lying inner courtyard in Münchwilen, Thurgau, could also be developed into an attractive parking space with an environmental bonus.
