LANDSCAPING COVERING ALL
he desire for landscaping products which are reliable, sustainable and affordable is the key to understanding the current market and the
expectations of customers in 2025. That’s why landscaping products supplier Azpects has its Made in Britain accreditation, to tick all these boxes. It uses recycled and recyclable materials in its products. Liam Bull, marketing manager, says: “Consumers will be looking to clean and refurbish existing outdoor spaces instead of a new install. Our Azpects Deep Clean and our specialised products, such as our Porcelain Cleaner, are ideal for rejuvenating a perfectly sound but tired patio space. In the future there is also likely to be a move towards using a blend of hard landscaping materials as a means to reduce costs. Pavers, clay setts and fine gravel in varying amounts are options to save money and be more sustainable.”

Bull explains: “Azpects products come in to their own when helping to create their AI plan. With nine colours in the EASYJoint and EASYJoint Select ranges a wide choice of look and finish is available.
Refurbishing and revamping are the words when it comes to landscaping in 2024 but what will 2025 look like? BMJ finds out what’s to come.
“However, for those that love spending time outside and have the means, adding an outdoor living space or two is suspected to be a huge trend in 2025. Going above and beyond traditional patios, landscaping is expected to include living spaces like outdoor kitchens, dining and lounge areas. “The perfect answer when finishing these instals is Azpects range of jointing and grouting products. Their entire cleaning and sealing ranges keep these premium areas pristine for years to come.”
For those who are looking to rejuvenate their neglected patios and outdoors areas Azpects offers its Patio Snow Foam. Bull states: “Patios and driveways are constantly exposed to all the elements, walked, and driven across frequently, and ignored through the colder months. This can leave the area looking tired, stained, dirty and in need of a jolly good clean. But how much time and effort can be afforded to restoring a patio desirable enough to spend time sitting on or a driveway that gives a property back that lovely curb appeal?
Merchants should be advising consumers on the benefits of using AI, this allows them to digitally imagine their ideal back garden before rushing headlong into making big decisions.
“Azpects Patio Snow Foam makes removing dirt, grime, and stubborn stains easy. Simply spray the foam, leave to do its magic and pressure wash it away, taking the muck with it. For that extra bit of oomph, a stiff brush can be used with the foam.”
Patio Snow Foam is a ready to use formula, containing no acid and is biodegradable, meaning it is safe for children and pets to use their outdoors spaces again once the area has been washed down.
“We are frequently asked for a ‘wet look’ sealer for natural stone,” says Bull. “Many homeowners love the look of natural stone patio just after it has rained. With a gap in the market for a product that could create this look, Azpects took on the challenge and developed the all new Natural Stone Intensifier.
“At Azpects, our Natural Stone Intensifier has been technologically developed to enhance and deepen the hues and colour of natural stone. A penetrating resin that transforms and exaggerates the look of natural stone, while providing a stain and water-resistant surface.” Bull adds: “It really is a fantastic complementary product for the maintenance and rejuvenation of natural stone projects.” n
