Engineering and resources

Test data, data sheets, cross-sections, specification clauses and one-page installation sheets for GridMats. New to the words engineers use? See Terms we use, a plain-English glossary.

Resource library

Everything a consultant, contractor or buyer asks for, on par with the global makers: fliers, one-page installation sheets, data sheets, cross-sections, tender clauses, certificates and research. Certificates and the film are open. Fliers, installation sheets and the technical documents ask once per visit for your name, email, mobile and location, and your project if you have one. Items marked “Request” come by email the same working day.

Test data

Laboratory compression tests on the panel. OC-HD 40: 170 t/m² empty (latest test report); filled, about 320 t/m² with cold asphalt and 3,200–4,000 t/m² with M25 concrete at 5 days (Stedrant, 2021). OC-LW 40: 105 / 200 t/m² in-house; third-party test due Q4 2026. Panel tests compare panels; a pavement's capacity comes from the base designed for its traffic and soil. RoHS compliant and polypropylene confirmed by FTIR (NABL-accredited lab, 2023); melting-point report on request.

IIT Hyderabad research

Modulus improvement factor 2.00 at CBR 5% and 1.63 at CBR 10%, from large-scale tank tests with OC-LW 40 at the GSB/WMM interface (report, October 2025). Presented at TGS2026, IISc Bengaluru, for publication by Springer.

The design engine

Send CBR, load, traffic, rainfall, terrain and finish; our engineers return every permanent system designed and priced, with the conventional comparison.

Installation and training

A one-page installation sheet for each system except S4 is in the library below, once you share your details. For S4, the installation guide gives a broad outline; S4 is built only by teams we train, and the S4 SOP comes with a paid order. The installation guide comes by email on request; the SOP, the hold-point checklists and the method statement for your site come with your order, and we train your contractor’s execution team: on site for up to 3 days for orders of 2,000 m² or more, once you confirm in writing that the site is ready; online at no extra cost below that. On-site training is built into the product rate on your quote, so there is one PO with no separate service order; online training is at no extra cost.

Drainage and terrain

GridMats gravel and grass designs are customised to the geography, rainfall intensity and topography of the site: sub-surface drains sized to four rainfall classes, cross-sections for flat, graded, steep and embankment sites. On the permeable systems the rain is drained below the surface.
