Turn Your Hard Landscapes Soft

Adopting grass paving on driveways and carparks is a growing trend to address issues of greener external works

For both commercial and domestic car parks and driveways there are options for concrete grass reinforcement. Specifiers can turn those large parking areas into sustainable green vistas with sustainability built in.

Grass Concrete Ltd enjoys the benefit of offering both concrete and plastic varieties of grass permeable paving for parking areas big or small.

Grasscrete offers an engineering solution with a structural quality for heavy-duty trafficking and flood alleviation sustainable for many years. Cast-on site concrete, pre-cast concrete or plastic systems are all options - tailored fit for purpose ground engineering solutions are all available from Wakefield based Grass Concrete Ltd.


The permeability features of grass paving addresses SUDS issues where hard landscaping can provide too much run-off, whereas the more permeable grass paving mitigates surface water run-off and its implications for the local storm water network.

Achieving maximum and sustainable grass cover is best guaranteed by a system that promotes permeability, the depth and shape of the soil pockets therefore has a critical part to play if grass cover is to be sustained. Both Grasscrete and Grassblock offer substantial capacity for soils and root systems to promote maximum grass coverage.

For regular trafficked areas where regular or heavy-duty vehicles can be expected the company’s well known Grasscrete is cast on-site, providing massive structural integrity with deep soil pockets to establish the best possible grass coverage.

Alternatives but still with a strong concrete under-structure for regular parking is Grassblock, available as a pre-cast option, again provides maximum load bearing capacity.

Grass Concrete only recommend plastic paving with Grassroad where light trafficking applications are called for – secondary parking in driveways and grass verge hardening and embankments.
