Because it's porous, Futura Stone puts an end to the problem of puddles and standing water as it can be installed over drains. Water flows through Futura Stone, or follows the natural drainage pitch of the substrate.
Futura Stone is dredged and then chemically washed to remove sand, dirt and iron. The gravel is kiln-dried and sized, and finally bagged in polyvinyl bags to keep it dry.
Since Futura Bond creates an elastic bond between the particles of river gravel, natural expansion and contraction will take place without fear of hairline cracks. Futura Stone can be seamlessly installed in an aesthetically pleasing application without expansion joints.
Substances such as grease, body oils, suntan oils, motor oils or gum will not adhere to Futura Stone.
Once applied and cured, Futura Stone fuses with the substrate and requires in excess of 8,000 pounds per square inch pressure to shear. Made to withstand heavy vehicular traffic, our team recommends both residential and commercial use.
Futura Bond is a two-part epoxy resin developed by our own chemists in Atlanta, GA. During laboratory tests, it was proven to be stronger than the rock itself. It's the only stone-bonding epoxy recommended by Shell Oil Company for permanent, above-grade installation, and the only one to carry a manufacturer's guarantee of five years.
