New Zena edging stone for a seamless transition

A neat transition from the paved area to the lawn contributes substantially to a well-maintained appearance of a garden. In this regard, it comes down to a stable edging of the paved area. Now, this area can be created particularly attractive and visually appealing with the aid of the Zena edging stones made by Kann – complementing the Zena paving blocks. The special edging stone replaces the traditional curbstone and border stone, respectively, in designing paved areas. The edging stone ensures a seamless, plane transition between paved area and lawn without expanded joints. Hence, the visual advantage of a „normal“ paving block is combined with particular technical characteristics.

Increased displacement resistance and pavement stability

Its thickness of 14 cm allows for deep-lying lateral support concrete. Hence, there is an appropriate soil cover ensuring healthy growth of the lawn, and the lawn shows fewer drought damages in the zone of the lateral support.

The sides of the edging stones measuring 20 x 20 cm are fitted with spacers being only 3 mm thick, allowing for a visually continuous transition from the paved area to the edging stone. The laterally surrounding interlocking spacers of the Kanntec10 protection system additionally increase the displacement resistance and the provide the pavement with stability. In this way, the paved area gets a stable edging.

The Zena edging stone offers a lot of options in respect of design – even beyond the Zena paving blocks, as the neutral colors granite gray and anthracite with ground or sand-blasted surfaces can be combined with numerous other paving systems. No matter, which paving system is used, the edge and the lawn transition appear exceptionally attractive in any case.
