The innovative design allows for the grid to be ‘pressed’ into the existing ground ensuring that all traffic ride on the combination of both the grids and the ground preventing ground churning.
HOW IT WORKS
The grid is designed in a way that it tapers from a sharper edge from the bottom of the grid that is first to contact the earth, to the middle wider profile, this design allows the deck to cut through the earth like a knife as weight is applied. Then from a wider middle profile it tapers back down to a slightly less sharp top edge, this means the earth can trap the grids down to prevent a lifting action, this is where our grid is unlike any other grid in the world, and with this the corners of the grid have a specially designed rib (which we call an Anti-Lift-Rib), which also prevents it from lifting. This too is added to by the grabbing of the grass itself over a short period of time, clinging and almost wrapping the grids, and grass being as strong as it is, means they simply won’t move once knitted together. The longer they are in the ground, the more wrapped & binded they become by the grass, leading to a far more durable and stable surface, which stays green even in the winter wet months, preventing mud.
We recommend that the grids are pressed into the ground using a 2.5-10 tonne ride on vibrating roller and importantly with the circle markings facing down into the ground. This makes for an incredible easy installation, depending on the suitability of your ground.
Why not request a sample and check the suitability for your desired location, as not all turfed areas will take the grid. Contact our helpful team today for a sample.

What are S.U.D.S
S.U.D.S infoEcodeck are proud to offer a sustainable solution to SuDS. SuDS are a nature-based solution to drainage problems. They reduce the impact of rainfall, for example by using grassed and other permeable surfaces, creating rain gardens, or building attenuation ponds in order to reduce the potential for surface water or river flooding. The excess rainfall is captured and then slowly filtered into the ground.
