Castlepoint Shopping Centre Continuation Works

The Site

Castlepoint Shopping Centre in Bournemouth occupies a 41-arce site, opened to the public in October 2003, following major redevelopment of the site which had previously been occupied by The Hampshire Centre.

The Challenge

Since 2018, redevelopment and reparation works had been carried out across the entirety of the Castlepoint Shopping Centre site. The 6 phases are set to be complete over 5 years. With the potential for higher volumes of footfall and vehicular traffic, the Shopping Centre were keen to ensure that new areas of CBP wouldn’t require consistent reparation works.

The Solution

Resiblock Resiecco had been originally used on the site in 2015 to provide initial sealing works to the CBP areas in the Car Parks, to prevent jointing sand erosion and paver destabilisation. The newly expanded walkways and repaired car parks were the subjected to the same sealing works as the initial 2015 paved areas to ensure long-term asset protection for the car park.

The Benefits

Resiblock Resiecco is a one pack material, it is broadcast over the surface of the paving with simplistic tools and does not require any specialist labour.  It will bind the paver jointing sand preventing its erosion from trafficking, natural elements and manmade cleaning regimes.
