DALTEX BASE4BOUND: The Foundation of Beautiful, Long-Lasting Resin Bound Surfaces
DALTEX BASE4BOUND is a high-performance base system created specifically for resin bound surfacing. Designed as an alternative to traditional tarmac or concrete, it delivers exceptional strength, flexibility and permeability, making it the ideal foundation for resin bound driveways, pathways, patios and heavy vehicle and commercial spaces.
Used alongside the BBA Approved DALTEX Performance UVR Resin Bound System, DALTEX Base4Bound forms a fully compatible, permeable build-up which when installed to correct specifications and conditions, is backed by our manufacturer 5-year guarantee against cracking - giving installers and homeowners complete confidence in the installation.
Why resin bound installers choose DALTEX BASE4BOUND
Daltex Base4Bound gives installers practical advantages that make a real difference day to day. Here’s why it’s a great choice for resin bound installers:
Suitable for many applications
DALTEX Base4Bound is suitable for a wide range of domestic and commercial applications:
Suitable for light vehicle, heavy vehicle and pedestrian loads including:
Residential driveways
High-footfall commercial areas
Public projects
Pathways, ramps & access routes
Pool surrounds & leisure facilities
Retail forecourts & car parks
SUDs compliant
DALTEX Base4Bound is SUDs compliant as it forms a permeable base layer which allows water to drain naturally. When paired with BBA Approved DALTEX Performance Resin Bound System, the complete resin bound installation is compliant with SUDS regulations.
This means:
✔ No puddles
✔ No surface water run-off
✔ No planning permission required for most driveway installations
Fast cure times
When you’re juggling installations, time matters. Traditional base layers often mean multiple visits, long curing times and crews waiting around for the surface to be ready. Daltex Base4Bound cuts that downtime dramatically, helping you get more driveways finished in less time.
Less disruption
From a homeowner’s perspective, speed and convenience are often just as important as the final finish. Most homeowners don’t want to give up their driveway for multiple days and neighbours do not appreciate disturbance for long periods. DALTEX Base4Bound lessens both hassle and time and helps keep disruption to a minimum.
High flexural strength and durability
DALTEX Base4Bound offers excellent flexural strength, helping absorb ground movement and lower the risk of cracking. Its durable structure provides a long-lasting, stable foundation for resin bound surfaces, particularly important in high-traffic or vehicle-bearing areas.
Compacts cleanly and easily
DALTEX Base4Bound compacts quickly, cleanly and consistently, helping teams create a strong foundation, reducing the risk of unevenness and weak spots in the base layer.
