Innovative Design for Optimal Performance
The EarthPress Grid features a unique tapered design that enables it to be pressed directly into the existing ground. This innovative approach allows for traffic from both pedestrians and vehicles, to ride on both the grid and the ground, effectively preventing ground churning. The grid’s sharp bottom edge cuts through the earth upon weight application, while the wider middle profile anchors it down, thanks to a special Anti-Lift Rib at the corners that prevents upward movement. Over time, the grass naturally wraps around the grid, enhancing stability and durability, even during wet winter months.
Our EarthPress Grids are quick and easy to install. We recommend using a 2.5-10 tonne ride-on vibrating roller to press the grids into the ground, ensuring the circular markings face downward for optimal performance. The snap-clip interlocking fixings make the process quick and efficient, allowing you to achieve a strong, stable surface with minimal effort.
