• Paver Blocks are solid, un-reinforced, precast cement concrete paving units used in the surface
course of pavements, with minimum horizontal cross section of 50mm from any edge in any
direction and having an Aspect (Length to Thickness) Ratio not more than 4.
• Paver Blocks are placed on a bedding and base to support pedestrians as well as all kinds of light
and heavy vehicular traffic.
• Paver Blocks can be interlocking or non-interlocking units.
• PBMA members provide Paver Blocks in a wide range of finishes, colours, shapes, and sizes.

• Paver Blocks are often produced in two layers with upper wearing layer usually made of finer
