GrassProtecta™ Grass Protection Mesh

GrassProtecta™ grass protection mesh is a thick, tough extruded plastic mesh for the protection and reinforcement of grassed areas prone to rutting, wear and becoming muddy in wet conditions. Grass protection mesh protects the grass from wear and offers essential ground reinforcement. GrassProtecta™ reinforcement mesh gives a higher level of reinforcement to grass than our TurfProtecta™ turf reinforcement mesh, and is an economical and cost effective alternative to our Bodpave™ grass paving grids.

Applications include grassed car parks, overspill car parks, buggy paths on golf courses, light aircraft taxiways, grass paths, police, ambulance and fire service access routes, grass verges, caravan park areas and grass lawns to park a vehicle / car on. GrassProtecta™ is manufactured from high density polyethylene and incorporates a blowing agent which gives the mesh a rougher surface thus creating a less slippery surface. The grass protection mesh is UV Stabilised and green in colour. It is rot resistant, chemically inert and therefore provides a long term grass reinforcement solution.

GrassProtecta™ can be installed directly onto the grass surface and secured every metre by steel U-pins. If the surface is uneven, then the area should be made level and any depressions filled with a mixture of sandy topsoil & seed. (If the area is not level, more pins will be required and we cannot guarantee the product being 100% effective). The grass will quickly grow through the mesh apertures and the roots will intertwine with the mesh filaments, creating a strong reinforced surface. The grass protection system ensures the grassed area will soon resume its natural appearance as the mesh disappears beneath the surface, and will immediately be capable of supporting cars, pedestrians and other vehicular traffic.

GrassProtecta™ is the ideal grass reinforcement system for reinforcing fire engine and other emergency service access routes, as it is designed to resist high load bearing weights (upto 8 tonnes per axles - imposed load on good, solid well dained soil) :

Please note that we recommend that a suitable bedding is installed prior to installing the grass protection mesh for fire service access routes, to ensure the product works to its potential.

For applications only to reinforce grass that will be used for occasional vehicle
parking and heavy pedestrian use, GrassProtecta™ Grass Protection Mesh would be the
ideal solution. TurfProtecta™ turf reinforcement mesh may also be suitable. For heavier frequent     loads (inluding entrances) we can also offer our
Bodpave™ Grass Pavers
