Established in 2013, StarPath Eco-Chips offer the world’s first UV-powered pathway. Eco-Chips are a composite mixture of strontium aluminate and specialty polymers that are laid into the surface of concrete/tarmac at the time of installation. These chips are designed to absorb UV rays during daylight hours and release it back as light energy at night. This maintenance free green energy solution has the ability to reduce the reliance on expensive and harmful artificial street lighting and minimize light pollution, while at the same time providing lighted, enhanced safety on the pathways.
