Gravel fill
EcoGrid provides a clean, stable and long lasting way to create gravel filled surfaces without the usual problems of movement, rutting or puddles. It is ideal for driveways, parking areas and pathways where you want the look of gravel with a firm, reliable base.
The problem with traditional Gravel surfaces
Traditional gravel driveways and parking areas may look attractive, but they often become difficult to maintain over time. Without proper support beneath the surface, gravel shifts, sinks and spreads, creating messy, uneven and sometimes unsafe areas.
Gravel travelling onto roads, pavements and lawns
Ruts forming under tyres and foot traffic
Water collecting and creating puddles
Weed growth appearing through the surface
Base materials mixing with the gravel
Frequent maintenance to keep the area tidy and level
How EcoGrid solves it
EcoGrid provides a strong and reliable structure that holds gravel securely in place while keeping the surface fully permeable. The grid system prevents movement, spreading and rutting, giving you a clean and stable finish that looks good and performs well in all weather conditions.
EcoGrid helps by:
- Locking gravel into individual cells so it stays where it should
- Creating a firm, level surface that does not sink under tyres
- Allowing water to drain naturally to prevent puddles
- Reducing maintenance and keeping surfaces tidy
- Supporting day to day traffic, from cars to vans
- Providing a neat and consistent appearance all year round
