The History of Interlocking Pavers

An interlocking concrete paver is a special type of paver known as a segmental paver. It has been a popular alternative to brick, concrete, or even clay in the past couple of decades.



Interlocking (or segmental) pavers have been used for many centuries. The Romans actually built roads and other drive/walkways with them. In the mid-1940’s, pavers were beginning to be produced out of concrete.

It began in the Netherlands where the roads are flexible because they are below sea level and have several ground shifts, sinks, and moves. Poured concrete cannot be utilized because it will crack. Single units not set in concrete and placed in a special type of sand perform much better than traditional poured concrete.
