Alliance Gator Aqua Rock is a permeable granite aggregate that keeps joints open so water can drain through the paved surface. It does not bond or lock joints. Polymeric sand is a polymer bonded jointing material that locks paver joints solid, resisting weeds, ants, and erosion. Use Alliance Gator Aqua Rock when you need a permeable paving system for stormwater management. Use polymeric sand when you need bonded joints that resist weeds, insects, and joint erosion.

Weed management is an ongoing maintenance requirement for permeable paver systems using Alliance Gator Aqua Rock.

Alliance Gator Aqua Rock is manufactured to meet this standard precisely. This matters because the correct gradation ensures consistent void space between particles for reliable water infiltration, adequate stability to support paver loads, and compatibility with permeable paver system specifications from ICPI and local engineers. Using off-spec aggregate instead of ASTM No. 9 can result in clogging, poor drainage, or instability.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"border: 1px solid #e8e2d8; border-radius: 5px; overflow: hidden; margin-bottom: 6px;\"\u003e\n\u003cbutton style=\"display: flex; justify-content: space-between; align-items: center; padding: 12px 15px; font-size: 13px; font-weight: 600; color: #1d1d1d; cursor: pointer; background: #fff; border: none; width: 100%; text-align: left;\"\u003eHow do I maintain my Alliance Gator Aqua Rock permeable paver system over time?\u003cspan style=\"color: #e8a020; font-size: 18px; font-weight: 300; flex-shrink: 0; margin-left: 12px;\"\u003e+\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/button\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"padding: 0 15px 13px; font-size: 13px; color: #555; line-height: 1.78; display: none;\"\u003eAlliance Gator Aqua Rock permeable paver systems require periodic maintenance to restore drainage capacity as sediment accumulates in the joints.
