Gentle Ground Stabilization in Green Spaces
Ground stabilization in green spaces, parks, and natural landscapes requires special consideration when it comes to load and wear. Here, it’s essential that solutions are not only functional but also environmentally friendly. Permatrax Ground Grid 35 is a smart system for ground stabilization that reinforces the surface without disturbing the natural appearance. The grid structure locks the fill material in place and distributes pressure from foot traffic, bicycles, or service vehicles. The result is a stable and durable surface—while allowing grass, soil, and plants to thrive.
One of the key advantages of Permatrax Ground Grid is its suitability for sensitive environments where asphalt or other hard surfaces are not desirable. Its open design allows grass to grow through the cells, so the area maintains a natural look even after reinforcement. This is especially valuable in public parks, courtyards, school environments, and nature reserves where aesthetics, accessibility, and eco-friendly solutions must go hand in hand.
Applications in Parks and Green Spaces
Permatrax Ground Grid 35 works well for a wide range of ground stabilization needs in green spaces such as parks and recreational areas. One of the most common uses is for walkways. By installing the grid beneath footpaths, you get a firm and even surface that remains unaffected by rain or foot erosion. Gravel or soil stays in place, helping to prevent mud, erosion, or uneven wear.
Another popular application is for service roads in parks. These roads are used by maintenance vehicles, waste collection, or emergency services. They must handle moderate loads while blending into the green surroundings. With Permatrax Ground Grid, you can reinforce the ground enough to support light vehicles—without needing concrete or asphalt. Temporary parking areas or event zones can also be discreetly and sustainably stabilized using the grid system.
Tree-covered areas are another setting where this product excels. Soil around trees is often vulnerable to compaction, but the grid’s structure protects root systems while keeping the surface walkable. This is particularly useful in urban parks where pedestrian traffic often passes close to planted zones.
Tips for a Sustainable Installation and Long Service Life
To get the best results, installation of Permatrax Ground Grid 35 should be done carefully. Start by preparing the surface—remove organic material and level the ground. A geotextile fabric underneath the grid modules is recommended to separate the base layer from the subsoil and reduce the risk of sinking or settling. Then, fill the grid cells with the appropriate material—typically gravel, sand, topsoil, or a mix depending on the use case.
Want to create a green surface that can handle load? You can combine Permatrax Ground Grid 35 with topsoil and grass seed. This results in a natural-looking lawn with significantly improved durability. It’s a popular choice for courtyards, event spaces, and playgrounds.
The grid is easy to cut and shape. You can adapt it around trees, planters, benches, or paths. Thanks to its high-strength, UV-resistant plastic construction, it has a long service life—even in demanding outdoor environments.
With the right preparation and materials, you’ll achieve a stable, functional, and visually appealing solution. Permatrax Ground Grid 35 is a sustainable choice for the green cities and parks of the future.
