High performance, large-scale environments are the targets for resin-bound paving pioneer SureSet as it enters a new chapter with refreshed branding and expanding commercial surfacing work.
More than 100 commercial projects covering more than 20,000m² of resin-bound paving have generated over £1m in contract value in the last year, with another 130 live commercial contracts in the pipeline, representing 8,000m² and an estimated £500,000+ in upcoming work.
SureSet’s recent portfolio spans public realm upgrades in Castle Street, Trowbridge, pedestrian surfacing around University of Birmingham rail station and a branded courtyard at a Cardiff business park.
Other notable installations include an entire campus scheme at the University of Bath, new surfaces at London Bridge Primary School, a bespoke resin logo at the Entrepreneurs Circle HQ in Solihull and accessible pathways at Horatio’s Garden in London, a therapeutic outdoor space for hospital patients.
Still delivering high-quality resin bound solutions for residential projects, the SureSet’s strategic direction “reflects growing demand across the education, healthcare, local authority, public realm and commercial branding sectors”, it states, in what are “non-negotiable performance, sustainability and aesthetics” parameters.
Types and volume of commercial spaces embracing resin-bound paving have shifted recently, says Peter Watts, founder of SureSet Resin UK Ltd. “From universities to public parks and healthcare settings, the demand reflects a broader understanding of resin’s permeability, durability and design flexibility.
“Our refreshed brand has brought new energy and clarity to our offer and with a stronger presence in specification and frameworks, we’re ambitious about doubling our commercial footprint over the next two years.”
More architects, planners and developers now specify resin bound surfacing on complex and high-profile projects, he adds. “SureSet is also increasing its visibility across major specification and compliance platforms, including Glenigan, NBS, SpecifiedBy and Causeway, alongside recognised accreditations such as BBA, CHAS, ISO, and Guildmark.
“Our ambition is to be recognised not just as a product supplier but also as a specification partner. A team that combines technical insight, design collaboration and on-the-ground delivery through a trusted national installer network.”
“Smart commercial choice”
The company’s resin-bound solutions offer “a compelling alternative to traditional paving, delivering proven benefits for developers and public sector clients alike”.
They are SuDS compliant, helping reduce surface water runoff and manage flood risk and are durability and slip resistant, even in high-footfall environments. Custom finishes enable integration with placemaking and wayfinding strategies, while “minimal maintenance cuts operational costs over the surface’s lifetime”.
