Parking Grids and Plastic Shed Bases provide a practical solution for creating stable, durable, and environmentally friendly outdoor surfaces. Designed to support vehicle traffic and outdoor structures, these products help prevent ground movement, improve drainage, and reduce maintenance requirements. Manufactured in the UK using recycled plastic, they offer a long-lasting alternative to traditional paving, concrete, and slab foundations.
What Are Parking Grids?
Parking Grids are robust ground reinforcement panels sized at 500mm x 500mm x 40mm. Their flexible yet strong construction allows them to withstand the weight of cars, golf buggies, and golf course maintenance vehicles. Each grid contains 49 individual 70mm square pockets, creating an open-cell structure that securely holds gravel or grass.
The cell bottom lattice feature design plays an important role in stability. Once installed and filled, the weight of the material inside the cells helps keep the grids firmly in place. This design reduces movement while improving load distribution across the surface.
Benefits of Parking Grids
Strong Load-Bearing Performance
Parking Grids are designed to handle regular vehicle traffic without causing damage to the ground beneath. Their high-strength construction spreads weight evenly, helping to prevent rutting, sinking, and uneven surfaces.
Gravel and Grass Stabilisation
The open-cell structure allows for a neat gravel or grass finish. The additional cell walls improve stability while preventing lateral and downward migration of the infill material. This helps maintain a tidy and level surface over time.
For best results, a gravel size tolerance of 5mm to 30mm is recommended. This range provides excellent stability while maintaining effective drainage.
Sustainable Drainage Benefits
The permeable design supports S.U.D.S. Regulations (Sustainable Urban Drainage Solutions) by allowing water to drain naturally into the ground. This helps reduce standing water and encourages natural drainage.
Eco-Friendly Construction
Manufactured from recycled plastic, Parking Grids provide a sustainable ground reinforcement solution. Their long lifespan reduces the need for replacement while supporting environmentally responsible landscaping projects.
What Are Plastic Shed Bases?
Plastic Shed Bases provide a strong and reliable foundation for outdoor structures. Featuring easy-to-install snap-clip interlocking fixings, they offer significant time and cost savings compared to conventional concrete or paving slab foundations.
Manufactured from a high-strength injection-moulded plastic and rubber blend, these bases are heat tested, freeze tested, and UV stable. Their load-spreading design helps support heavy structures while maintaining stability on various ground conditions.
Benefits of Plastic Shed Bases
Quick and Easy Installation
The interlocking design allows for rapid assembly without specialist equipment. Once installed, the base is ready for immediate use.
Damp Prevention
The elevated structure creates airflow beneath buildings, helping to prevent damp from reaching the bottom of sheds and other outdoor structures. This feature can help extend the lifespan of supported buildings.
Exceptional Strength
Plastic Shed Bases offer high compression strength and a load-bearing capacity exceeding hundreds of tonnes when correctly installed. They also come with a 10-year guarantee.
Delivery Information
Orders are dispatched using national 24-hour express couriers to provide a fast and efficient service. Delivery is usually completed within 3 working days from the order date, excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and Bank Holidays.
By combining durability, sustainability, easy installation, and long-term performance, Parking Grids and Plastic Shed Bases provide an effective solution for ground reinforcement, parking areas, pathways, and outdoor building foundations.
