Campsites

EcoGrid provides a strong, stable and permeable solution for access routes of all types, from small entrance areas to full fire and service vehicle roads. 

Common problems faced by campsites

Campsites often struggle with the same recurring issues caused by heavy use and changing weather conditions. Soil becomes compacted under the weight of cars, caravans and motorhomes, which leads to poor drainage and muddy, uneven ground.

Wet weather quickly turns pitches into soft, boggy areas that are difficult to use and slow to recover.

Footpaths and access routes can also wear down, creating ruts, standing water and erosion that affect both appearance and safety. These problems increase maintenance costs and can reduce the usability of the site throughout the year.

How EcoGrid solves the problem

EcoGrid offers a practical way to stabilise campsite grounds and prevent many of the issues caused by vehicles, foot traffic and wet weather. It supports the surface, protects the soil and helps keep pitches usable all year round.
