- Open the same day. Nothing to cure; the crew leaves, the traffic arrives.
- Rain goes through it. Rainfall passes into an open-graded base and sub-surface drains sized to the site’s rainfall; edge and outfall drains where the levels need them.
- Designed to the terrain and the rain. Cross-section by topography, drainage by rainfall intensity: plain or steep sites.
- Chips stay in place. Cell confinement controls migration and reduces rutting, on a base designed to the IRC:37 rutting criterion; repairs are a top-up.
- ESG line item. Per 1,000 m²: 6.6 t of plastic waste reused, no cement, about 870 m³ of rain a year returned to the ground at Bengaluru rainfall.
Where it fits
Car parks and overflow parking · service roads · laydown yards · solar and wind sites · driveways and event grounds.
Build-up
OC-HD (trucks) or OC-LW (cars) 40 mm grid on 20–30 mm of M-sand or crusher-dust bedding over a compacted, open-graded base and a non-woven geotextile separation layer, filled with clean angular 8–12 mm chips and plate-compacted. Natural grey, black basalt, white marble or red laterite chips. Kerb or edge restraint; U-nails 1 per 2–3 m² on roads and slopes, 1 per 10 m² on flat yards.
Choose S2 when
- Car parks, access and service roads
- Rain should go into the ground rather than into surface drains
- Opening to traffic the same day
- A natural stone finish
Not ideal when
- Grades steeper than 6%, where loose chips can migrate: choose S1
- Special plant over 49 t or tight turning under heavy loads: choose S1
- A sealed surface that can be swept clean
What we need from you
- Area: length × width, or m²
- Location: city or a map pin
- Heaviest vehicle and vehicles a day
- Soil CBR if you have it, or the soil type
- The finish you want
- A site photo or layout drawing

Installation at a glance
The steps, what you need and when it opens, on one page. 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. We train your contractor’s team: on site for up to 3 days for orders of 2,000 m² or more once the site is confirmed ready, online at no extra cost below that; on-site training is built into the product rate (one PO).
Test reports
Bureau Veritas and Stedrant load tests, GreenPro, patent 398992, IIT Hyderabad research. See Engineering.
Drainage and terrain
Designs are customised to geography, rainfall intensity and topography: sub-surface drains sized to the rainfall class, cross-sections for plain and steep terrain.
Defect liability
Defect liability: 1 year (DLP), our standard practice. After the training visit, your team shares project status updates (photographs, test reports, and any roadblocks or challenges) at each hold point and at the intervals set in the project agreement; the DLP applies only when these updates have been shared.
See it go in
Filmed at Garden City University, Bengaluru: a campus road on the 30 mm grid (GP-30) with gravel. Truck yards use the 40 mm heavy-duty grid (OC-HD 40). Sound off by default; turn it on in the player.
