Equestrian Ground Stability Grids
The Plastic Gravel Grids is extremely tough and robust and can comfortably withstand horses, cattle and such like, they are also used for vehicles up-to around 20-25 (tested) tonnes including cars, vans and lorries. They are suitable for various domestic to light industrial surface reinforcement applications (see our ‘Other Information’ section for other uses and applications).
The open cell structure design of the Plastic Gravel 500 grid (X49 individual 70mm square pockets per grid) allows for neat compact and stable finish. Not only do the grids open cell structure provide extra walls of stability they also prevent lateral and downward migration and disruption of your chosen infill material. For best results we would suggest to use sand, rubber grain, soil and gravel size tolerances of 5mm to 20mm maximum.
The Plastic Gravel modular design means the system can be added too at any time. With a simple and easy lateral jigsaw like push-snap fixing.
The Plastic Gravel is a high strength, UV stable, recycled, injection moulded plastic grid that is compression tested to a ‘minimum’ 500 tonne / SQM load test rating.
Plastic Gravel minimises the construction work needed to provide a safe supportive surface for equine use, from menages, schools, arenas and even large public equine events. It provides a permanent, maintenance- free, safe and supportive winter riding surface solution.
The Driveway Gravel Grids can also be installed in areas for over flow car parking, and access routes for maintenance vehicles too.
