GR14 Grass Reinforcement Mesh

Product Info:

GR14 grass reinforcement mesh provides strong, permanent protection by reinforcing existing grass areas against traffic damage from vehicles and pedestrians.

This heavy-grade mesh has been designed to allow prolonged summer and winter use of grass parking areas whilst maintaining the visually aesthetic appeal of the grassy area.

GR14 grass reinforcement mesh has been specially designed to allow quick and maximum grass entanglement, giving structure and encouraging the mesh to become invisible as it disappears into the grass. The plastic mesh has also been designed with an oscillated structure providing enhanced anti-slip properties whilst retaining the necessary resistance to damaging traffic movements.

Grass reinforcement meshes, like all Suregreen ground reinforcement solutions, are compliant for SuDS Source Control (Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems).

 Applications:

• Daily car parking requirements
• Overflow grass car parks
• Allowing off-road parking on grass verges
• Disabled wheelchair access routes (DDA) and paths
• Creating access to grass areas normally closed off to cars
• Minimising damage to highly trafficked grassed areas such as builders compounds
• Temporary grass access routes
• Equestrian use to prevent issues such as poaching and rutting at paddock gateways, walkways and feeding rings

Features & Benefits:

• Ideal for permanent grass reinforcement applications
• Fast to install, cost-effective and versatile
• Suitable for domestic driveways or commercial parking needs for vehicles up to 7.5 tonnes (on stable ground)
• GR14 provides a permeable, reinforced grass solution for cars, trucks, cycles and pedestrians
• Mesh is laid and fixed directly to the existing surface - no soil removal or excavation required!
• Slip-resistant mesh structure which can also be improved by adding a thin layer of sand over the mesh to provide increased grip and traction
• Prevents grass wear, rutting and mud caused by cars and traffic
• GR14 provides an environmentally conscious alternative to impermeable paved surfaces where natural grassed traffic routes and driveways are preferred
• Perfect for use where planning restrictions are applied or cost savings are being considered
• Ideal for use in Source Control applications as part of a Sustainable Urban Drainage System (SuDS)

Technical Information:

The plastic mesh is quick and easy to install - simply roll out over existing grass and fix in place using Suregreen’s Premium U-pins.

Once the mesh has been pinned down, we advise that you allow a sufficient amount of time for the grass to grow through the mesh and take hold, as this process of the grass intertwining with the mesh gives it its strength. If trafficked too early it can cause sinking, bumps or even damage. We advise not using the mesh until you have had to mow the grass at least once.

The suitability and success of using grass reinforcement mesh depends on a number of factors such as frequency of use, type of traffic, nature of soil and drainage. Grass reinforcement meshes are more suitable to be used on heavy clay/loam soils.

Please note that the load-bearing capacity and other specifications stated are reliant on ground conditions and our installation guides being followed. We ask that you consult one of our technical team before purchasing if you are concerned about any of the information stated.
