Purple LAC is a 100% permeable ground solution combining recycled plastic grids from Purple Alternative Surface with INMS by Colas, a natural binder called Aqua-Laq. This organo-mineral binder fixes gravel in place without sealing the surface, allowing fast water infiltration and no displacement—even under vehicle traffic. It’s a low-carbon, fully recyclable alternative to traditional gravel or paving, ideal for sustainable parking and landscaping.
Purple LAC is a 100% permeable solution for car parks, paths, and landscaped areas. Combining recycled plastic grids and Aqua-Laq, an organo-mineral binder, it stabilizes gravel without sealing the surface. Water infiltrates quickly, gravel stays in place, and maintenance is minimal. A low-carbon, recyclable, and aesthetic alternative that supports sustainable land use and the circular economy.
The solution aims to provide a sustainable, profitable and environmentally viable alternative to the construction sector in terms of flooring for small, medium and large players in this sector. This solution is based on strong regulatory obligations and on an increasingly important awareness of environmental problems and in particular those related to recycling. Today for every 3 parking spaces, Purple diverts 1 ton of waste from landfill and/or incineration. It thus achieves an average carbon gain of 3.4 tonnes.
