As the name suggests, a “sponge city” refers to an urban area with strong resilience in adapting to environmental changes and coping with natural disasters. It can absorb, store, infiltrate, and purify rainwater, and then release and reuse the stored water when needed.
We provide comprehensive solutions for sponge city development, including integrated water environment management, micro topography-based rainwater collection and purification, permeable, water-absorbing, and water-retaining pavement systems, as well as vegetated roadside ditches and ecological embankments. We also manufacture and supply the corresponding supporting construction materials.
"Rivers flow unimpeded, waters run clear, banks are green and scenic, functions are sound, and people and water live in harmony"
Sponge City Construction Project Case
The Sun Yat-Sen Library of Guangdong Province , whose renovation and expansion began in 2005 and was completed in 2010, incorporates eco-friendly and energy-saving technologies such as rainwater harvesting, solar power, natural lighting, and ventilation to create a comfortable environment for readers. For three quarters of the year, air conditioning is not required, resulting in a 50% energy savings and significantly reducing overall energy consumption. The project emphasizes ecological harmony, energy efficiency, and cultural richness, showcasing the core values of modernity, nature, and humanity. We supplied high-strength permeable paving bricks for the entire site. Rainwater passes through an underground filtration and recycling system, reused for landscape irrigation and cooling spray. It also seeps into the soil through the permeable surface, replenishing moisture for plants. During hot weather, water evaporates from the ground, drawing away surface heat and creating a cooling effect. Upon entering the site, one is greeted by towering ancient trees with lush canopies, offering shade and serenity—an oasis of calm and coolness. The project was designed by Guangzhou Design Institute and selected by the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development as a “Double Hundred” Low-Energy Building Demonstration Project and a “11th Five-Year Plan” Key Science and Technology Support Project—a model of renewable energy integration in architecture.
