A campus lawn on GridMats grass pavers: the surface stays green
In under 20 seconds
Grid, fill, finished
Why it wins
- The roots stay uncrushed. The paver holds the root zone and the base we design takes the load; green where a lawn would rut.
- Supports green-cover rules and permeable-area requirements, subject to local approvals; drains like a lawn.
- Foot traffic at once, vehicles once the grass is 60 mm and rooted (4–6 weeks).
- Low upkeep. Mow and water; no resurfacing, no repainting.
- ESG line item. Per 1,000 m²: 3 t of plastic waste reused, 1,000 m² of green cover kept, about 870 m³ of rain a year infiltrated.
Where it fits
Fire lanes on a base we design · overflow and visitor parking · amphitheatres and event lawns · walkways and drain margins · resort drives.
Build-up
Recycled-polypropylene grass paver, 30 mm for cars and fire-lane access on a base we design, 20 mm for walkways, on sand bedding over an open-graded base and a non-woven geotextile separation layer, filled with a sandy root-zone mix and seeded or turfed. Soil-filled OC-LW 40 where an earth path is wanted. Edge restraint all round; U-nails on slopes and at edges.
Choose S3 when
- Fire-lane access, overflow and visitor parking on a base we design
- Walkways and lawns: GP-20 for feet, GP-30 where cars drive
- A surface that stays green and lets rain into the ground
Not ideal when
- Daily truck traffic: choose S1 or S2
- Vehicles needed before the grass has rooted (4–6 weeks)
- No water for the grass in its first season
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.
