Highpave™
Durable Concrete Pavement

Fibre Reinforced Pavement Grade Concrete for Secure and Fast-Track Construction

Highpave™ is a range of fibre reinforced pavement grade concrete designed to deliver a high-performance, secure, and fast-track solution by reducing the errors associated with conventional steel mesh reinforcement. Utilising carefully selected frost-resistant aggregates and a range of metal or polymer reinforcing fibres, it provides enhanced toughness and superior resistance to mechanical forces and plant, resulting in unparalleled ease of pavement construction.

Rapid Construction

Special grades can achieve the required compressive strength in as little as 24 hours, offering significant savings in the overall construction programme.

Icon showing a weight above a surface
Enhanced Toughness

Superior toughness makes it suitable for paving subjected to high impacts, such as in lorry trailer parks, providing superior resistance to mechanical forces and heavy plant.

Reinforcement Certainty

Offers possible cost savings over conventional steel mesh reinforcement and guarantees the correct location of reinforcement while allowing for a reduction in joints.

Why HIGHPAVE™

Highpave™ is a technically distinguished concrete range tailored to the particular challenges of modern contracts. Its use of structural fibres eliminates the issues of placing and locating traditional steel mesh, providing certainty in reinforcement location. Special grades are available to meet specific needs, such as Highpave RA for rapid access, Highpave HS for high strength, and Highpave Housing for use with NHBC approved flooring systems.


The product conforms with the European standard BS EN 206:2013+A2:2021 and complementary British Standards, and is manufactured under ISO 9001 (Quality Management) and ISO 14001 (Environmental Management). It is available in strengths up to 100 N/mm² and consistency classes up to S4, making it highly versatile for demanding applications.
