GreenwayDirect offers various solutions for grass protection, ground support and reinforcement.

Rite-Pave For all types of grass protection :-

This grass paving ground protection systems can solve many problems and open up many opportunities for landscapers, architects and other people involved in protecting the environment.

The grass paving provides a driveable surface without undesirable run-off and softens the visual aesthetic. Water is allowed to penetrate the into the subsoil but the ground is protected from rutting, erosion and drainage problems.

Lightweight designs enable quick and easy installation. Sheets click together and can be laid at a rate of up to 60 sq.m per hour per worker.

Unique design enables thermal expansion of the plastic to prevent lifting at the joints and does not allow earth to slip underneath - thus protecting the grass.

Neat design of line markings for path guiding or parking space marking

All grass paving products are UV stabilised for long life and are made from 100% recycled Polyethylene to give maximum strength but using the minimum of raw materials

Conforms with European Standards, including German Asphalt acceptance up to 292 Te/sq.m.

Grass Reinforcement Mesh (M6323)

This Grass Reinforcement Mesh is a tough, flexible, long lasting polymer grid to permanently reinforce grassed areas used by vehicles and pedestrians. Grass intertwines with and grows through the mesh, giving a natural appearance.

Applications for this grass reinforcement mesh Include: Overspill car parks, grassed access routes, caravan parks, grass subject to heavy pedestrian use, grass verges in urban and parkland areas, driving ranges as an anti-ball plugging mesh and as a support underneath rubber mats in children's playgrounds.

Installation It is strongly recommended that installation be carried out during the grass growing season to allow a strong interlock between the reinforcement mesh and the grass roots, since the intertwining of the roots with the mesh gives the turf the strength to resist light traffic and temporary car parking. Therefore, a full growing season must be allowed before using the area. Once fixed in place, the grass will grow through the mesh and may then be mown, rolled and fertilised as usual. When fully established the mesh will be invisible and the turf will have a normal appearance.
Where a wide area is to be protected, the mesh should be overlapped and the layers held down with metal U or J pins.

The difference between the standard and the premium meshes is simply that the standard weight is 450g/m², whereas the premium weight is 650g/m². This means that the heavier premium grade can withstand more pressure from its load and is, therefore, stronger and more resistant.

This premium grade has been successfully installed in many applications such as overspill car parks, walk ways and air fields. The standard lighter weight mesh should only be used as an anti ball plugging mesh on driving ranges or as a grass reinforcement mesh where the traffic is very light weight or for very occasional use.

If your requirements are for a mesh to take heavier traffic then please look at the Grass Protection Mesh 5162.

Grass Protection Mesh (5162)

Grass Protection Mesh 5162 is used for outdoor events, to support grassed areas and prevent damage caused by heavier loads, such as cars, HGVs and horses etc.

This heavy duty grass protection mesh is 9mm thick, which helps to spread the weight of the load over grassed or turfed surface area more so than the standard or premium turf reinforcement meshes.

Ground Stabilisation (M5355)

Ground Stabilisation Mesh

This ground stabilisation mesh is used as a cost effective solution to overcome problems encountered with muddy water logged paths and gateways. When covered with a layer of stone, the high strength polymer gridlocks the stone into position, restraining the lateral movement of the stone.

The mesh is an extruded HDPE geo-net and is ideal for the prevention of impassable, deep muddied areas made by vehicles on soil / grass tracks and farm gateways.

The ground stabilisation mesh filaments interlock with the top layer of soil or stone, improving surface stability. It can be used in the construction of small roads to prevent surface deformation caused by penetration of the granular sub-base into the soft sub-grade.

Applications Include

* Road embankments & slopes
* Farm gateways
* Grass & soil tracks
* Grassed/soil areas being used by heavy farm machinery

Ground Stabilisation Mesh is available in green and black, and in varying mesh sizes and weights

Steel U-pins should be used in conjunction with the grass reinforcement and protection meshes. The pins hold the mesh in the ground until grass has grown through. Made from mild steel.
