The protection provided by Kontrast by Krete lasts for years, with the surface density and color properties of the paver standing out more with time.

Packaging Solutions

Kontrast by Krete packaging materials provide practical solutions to deliver a premium paver or concrete product to your storefront or job site

Separation layers used during packaging allow the concrete units to breathe, preventing efflorescence and the "halo" effect. They also provide a buffer between layers to prevent scratching or scuffing during transit. This ensures a premium concrete product from production to installation.

Netting concrete paver packaging

Kontrast Netting

Kontrast Netting is a plastic mesh netting sheet, cut to size, that is placed between paver layers to provide separation and protection.

Packaging beads for concrete pavers

Kontrast Spacer Bead

Kontrast Spacer Beads are LDPE granule beads placed between paver layers to provide separation and protection.

Biodegradable packaging beads for concrete pavers

Kontrast Spacer Ecobead

Kontrast Spacer Ecobeads are fully biodegradable granule beads placed between paver layers to provide separation and protection.
