Unipaver zigzag cabro sample panel with grey, charcoal and red blocks laid in stripes and a checker pattern, on display in the yard
Unipaver cabro
Also called Zigzag, S-shape, Uni-paver, I-shape
The most common cabro in Kenya. The zigzag edge locks each block against six neighbours, which is why it is the default for driveways, estate roads and parking.
Best for
- Driveways and home compounds
- Estate roads and parking bays
- Petrol station forecourts (80mm)
Laying note
Lay in herringbone for vehicle areas — the interlock resists braking and turning forces far better than straight rows. Stretcher bond is fine for walkways.
Price per m²
Priced per m² by thickness (50mm, 60mm, 80mm) and colour — grey is the standard, coloured costs more. Prices move with cement and pigment costs, so we send today's list rather than print a stale one.
Prices are per m² supply only, excluding transport and laying. Blocks are counted at roughly 50 per m².
- Blocks per m²
- Roughly 45–50. Budget 50, plus 5–10% for cuts and breakage.
- Lead time
- Grey, red and charcoal are usually available for delivery within 1–2 working days. Other colours and large orders take 5–7 days from deposit.
- Standard
- Benchmark: KS 827:2003 (KEBS) precast concrete paving blocks.
- Colour shades
- Vary slightly between batches. We mix pallets during laying so the variation blends.
