Who is KBI? Ten years ago while working in the industry of installing rubber surfacing, the Founder of KBI identified a significant opportunity within that industry utilizing recycled passenger tires. Many products have been developed from the tire waste stream, but by far the largest consumer of tire waste goes up in smoke every day as “Tire Derived Fuel” for power plants, cement kilns, etc. This waste material is created by our own population and can indeed help solve one of our planets major problems - the conservation of our most valuable resource...water! KBI has created a “GREEN” solution for the waste tires problem, through the development of a “Construction Material” that uses waste tires to address the “Population Increase - Storm Water Management Problem”, thus keeping tire waste from “Going Up in Smoke”! What KBI has achieved? A commercially viable construction material has been developed by KBI called “KBI Flexi® - Pave”. This construction material consumes immense quantities of waste tires. The tires are needed to provide the raw material necessary for this extremely strong, porous and diverse construction material. KBI Flexi® -Pave has an incredible porosity rate of approximately 2,000 gallons per square foot, per hour; thus providing the natural perking of water into the ground (ground water recharge) instead of flowing into the storm water sewer. This replenishes aquifers and maintaining our valuable fresh water supplies! This revolutionary construction paving material is dynamic in its physical nature and is mixed directly on the installation site. This product cures in just 24-hours, resulting in an extremely porous, heavy duty, flexible paving system designed for low speed applications such as parking lots, sidewalks, trails for bicycles, roller blades, jogging, walking, running and light weight vehicles such as golf carts. |
