HD-PE grass or gravel sheets guarantee durability

Choose quality for rideable surfaces

Creating self-draining driveable surfaces has become essential for sustainable and responsible management of stormwater. Strong, ecological, economical and aesthetic: HD-PE grass or gravel slabs are the ideal solutions to fulfill this function, provided the right product is chosen.

Grass and gravel slabs allow the creation of solid areas that require little maintenance and no water drainage; some examples are parking lots, driveways, fire roads... Track formation and puddling are avoided and the natural penetration of rainwater into the soil is promoted. To achieve such areas, one must count on strong and reliable slabs that can stabilize the grass or gravel in the long term, even with daily traffic.

Quality and nothing else

Choosing unsuitable slabs can have dire consequences; both for the life of the executed zone, and for the productivity of placement. In both cases, it can cause significant financial costs.
Choosing a quality grass or gravel board depends on many factors. When it comes to installation, proper size, ergonomics and comfort play a major role. Over time, the quality of the polyethylene used applies, as well as the structure and specific joints of the sheets. Grass or gravel sheets should maintain the same properties in all weather conditions thanks to their UV and freeze resistance.

On many projects, these elements are underestimated and the solution that turns out to be the cheapest based on the m² price is chosen. However, there is a specific solution for each application...

A specialized partner

MatGeco, the geotechnical division of the insulco group, was the very first to introduce the concept of polyethylene grass and gravel slabs in Belgium more than thirty years ago, with its Ritterdal, the slab with honeycomb structure. The reliability of this first model, with more than 5 million m² installed throughout Europe, needs no further proof.

The concept, design and selected raw materials guarantee long-term durability. A successful formula and a success story, as numerous completed projects over the years prove the reliability that MatGeco offers with its unique boards.

For every project its solution

In order to offer the best solution for every type of project, there are now no less than a dozen variations in shape or color that make up the grass and gravel slabs range of
MatGeco forms.

With its small size, the Ritterdal grass and gravel slab is the most recommended model for non-straight surfaces or small spaces. The large format of the Ritterdal XXL grass slab and the GravelGrid gravel slab guarantees exceptionally fast and easy installation, making the slab especially recommended for the realization of large parking lots or long drivable paths. The new TrafiDal 50 is the ideal alternative to concrete grass slabs. Visually, the TrafiDal 50 resembles grass concrete slabs, and it provides similar resistances, making this new slab suitable for heavy and intensive traffic. The RoadEdgePave is specially designed to reinforce roadsides in straight lines or curves.

In addition, almost all MatGeco grass and gravel slabs have their own marking caps, the ideal accessory to delineate your parking lots or different aisles such as
you wish.
