New on bimstore: Formpave from Forterra Building Products Ltd

New product added to Forterra’s existing range of BIM components

Forterra Building Products joined bimstore earlier this year with an abundance of BIM components, before later adding their award-winning flooring product, Jetfloor, to their range of BIM objects. As a leading manufacturer with a host of well-known brands, Forterra’s diverse and trusted range of concrete and clay building products are used extensively within the construction sector.

Established in 1989, Formpave is a world authority in SuDS using permeable paving. Their systems clean and drain surface water run-off in a controlled way and can also store the water for non-potable purposes such as flushing lavatories, watering plants and washing cars. All products are produced in accordance with BS EN ISO 9001: 2000 and certified with the new Construction Products Regulation (CPR) CE mark.
