WHAT ARE HARDSCAPE MATERIALS?
Nature’s beauty lies in its balance—soft, vibrant greenery harmonized by strong, enduring surfaces that frame and define the space. That’s where hardscaping materials come into play. These materials are typically solid and non-organic—such as stone, brick, wood, or asphalt—and serve as the backbone of outdoor design. Over the past few decades, Unilock has cemented itself in North America as a leading manufacturer of premium hardscape materials, including concrete pavers, natural stone, porcelain tile, and retaining wall blocks. These elements play are integral to designing beautiful outdoor spaces, including driveways, walkways, pool decks, outdoor kitchens, and more.
Unilock is committed to manufacturing the highest-quality hardscape materials, trusted by leading contractors and designers. From the introduction of the UNI-Stone to the steady stream of innovations that followed, including U-Cara® and Umbriano®, Unilock continues to set the industry standard, providing you with the materials to transform your dream outdoor space into a reality.
HOW HARDSCAPE MATERIALS ADD VALUE TO YOUR HOME
Curb appeal isn’t just about making a good first impression—it’s about creating an inviting outdoor space that reflects the beauty and value of your home. Even if you’re not planning to sell, there’s no reason your home can’t stand out from the crowd.
With Unilock hardscape materials, you can transform your driveway, patio, or walkway into a functional and visually stunning extension of your home. From durable pavers that offer unique design possibilities, like the flexible U-Cara® wall system, to eco-friendly permeable pavers that help manage stormwater and reduce runoff, the options are as practical as they are beautiful. Beyond aesthetics, Unilock pavers are built to last. They are manufactured to exceed industry standards for strength set out by the ASTM, CSA, and other European organizations. For example, products in our EnduraColor™ and Elegance™ lines utilize advanced manufacturing techniques to deliver timeless beauty and long-lasting durability.


CONCRETE PAVERS VS. POURED CONCRETE: CHOOSING BETWEEN HARDSCAPE MATERIALS
When designing paved surfaces, durability is key, because these areas must withstand heavy traffic and harsh freeze/thaw cycles year after year. While asphalt may seem like a cost-effective solution, it often falls short when compared to pavers.
Durability and Maintenance
Unilock concrete pavers are engineered for exceptional strength and durability. These products boast high compressive strength and low water absorption, ensuring they will resist damage caused by water freezing and expanding. This durability translates to less maintenance compared to traditional poured concrete or asphalt. With innovative features like EasyClean™ technology, you can opt for surfaces with integral stain resistance. This allows for faster cleanup of spills before they can develop into stains, so you’ll spend more time enjoying your outdoor space and less time worrying about upkeep. In contrast, asphalt is generally porous, which makes it vulnerable to water absorption, which can lead to cracks, ruts, and an uneven surface over time.
Repairs can also be costly for asphalt, from patching up small holes to tearing up entire strips of asphalt and starting fresh. By comparison, a cracked or chipped paver can be easily replaced by swapping in new pieces, without disrupting the entire surface. This simple fix can even be done as a DIY project, saving you both the time and money of hiring a professional contractor.
Design Flexibility
Design flexibility is another area where asphalt and poured concrete fall short. These surfaces are often limited to basic colors like black, grey, or brown, which offers little room for creativity. Unilock pavers, on the other hand, come in a wide range of colors, textures, sizes, and patterns, enabling you to create stunning designs that elevate the look of your driveway, patio, or walkway.
BLENDING HARDSCAPE MATERIALS WITH SOFTSCAPING
There’s something innately calming about connecting with nature. Softscaping elements such as grass, native trees, and flowers, can breathe life and energy into muted hardscape designs. Picture vibrant garden beds flanking a sleek paver walkway, or cascading vines softening the hardened edges of a retaining wall. Even small additions, like potted plants, hanging baskets, or trellises, can add warmth and character to patios and outdoor kitchens.
Softscaping doesn’t just stop at simple planters or gardens. Biophilic design principles blend hardscapes with nature to enhance both the beauty and well-being of those who inhabit the space. This could be as simple as installing lines of artificial turf between slabs to create a mosaic effect or combining fire and water features to bring a warm and soothing ambiance to your backyard. By combining these elements thoughtfully, you not only elevate the aesthetic look of your space but also reap the benefits of improved air quality and a deeper connection to nature.
Finally, consider the sustainability benefits of softscaping. Native plants, for example, require less water and care, while permeable pavers reduce surface runoff, absorbing excess rainwater to nourish nearby plants and trees, keeping your landscape healthy and vibrant.
