Product Info:

TR4 turf reinforcement mesh allows permanent trafficking by pedestrians, dogs, bikes and wheelchairs on grassed areas where this would not normally be considered. TR4 reinforcement mesh is also used for slope stabilisation to allow grass or vegetation to become established.

TR4 turf reinforcement mesh visually disappears once the grass grows through and helps to provide a protective layer which reduces grass wear, rutting and damage. The mesh works by interlocking with the natural intertwining roots of the grass, spreading weight loads and creating a stronger base. TR4 turf reinforcement mesh allows the use of the reinforced grass throughout the warmer seasons and occasionally in the winter months in some special circumstances, subject to factors such as frequency of use, type of traffic, nature of the soil and surface drainage.

TR4 turf reinforcement mesh is a 660g/m² green plastic mesh manufactured from green, part-recycled HDPE plastics. It is specially designed to provide many solutions to pedestrian access and prevent grass areas from becoming worn and rutted by traffic.

Applications:

• Frequently used pedestrian grassed walkways/areas
• Lawn reinforcement
• Slope soil stabilisation
• Large dog runs or pet play areas
• Allows regular movement of wheelbarrows over grass
• Wheelchair grassed access paths
• Play areas, under swings and around climbing frames

Features & Benefits:

• Turf reinforcement mesh is suitable for protecting grassed areas from pedestrian and bicycle traffic
• Turf protection mesh is a permanent solution for grass reinforcement
• Fast to install and cost-effective
• Suitable for domestic applications such as lawn protection and garden usage, as well as commercial applications such as grassed pathways and nature walks
• The mesh is laid and fixed directly to the existing surface - no soil removal or excavation required!
• Slip-resistant mesh structure - this slip resistance can also be improved by adding a thin layer of sand on the mesh to provide increased grip and traction
• Prevents grass wear, rutting and mud caused by traffic
• 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 the mesh over the existing grass area and fix in place using Suregreen’s Turf 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. It's this process of the grass taking hold that gives the mesh 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 turf reinforcement mesh depends on a number of factors like 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 ability to use TR mesh and its longevity are reliant on ground conditions and our installation guides being followed.
