Grassy Pavers
™ is a grass paver Soil Stabilization System made of
97% recycled HDPE plastic. A product called regrind is made
when recycled plastics are recovered for re-use. These
polymers are used in the manufacture of Grassy Pavers.
Now
architects and engineers, planners and developers are
thinking “green”; designing and building eco-friendly,
energy-efficient, high-performing, sustainable, and water
conserving buildings and surroundings with features that
promote natural over chemical, recycled over new, and
renewable over expendable. While the initial cost to “go
green” may be initially higher than using more conventional
building methods and materials, the payback in energy
efficiency, water conservation, and even worker productivity
easily exceeds those higher initial costs.
The
Green Building Council adopted industry standards and a
scoring system in 2000 that has resulted in acceleration in
the design and construction of “green” buildings and
surroundings. Their Leadership in Energy and Environmental
Design program (LEED) has become a benchmark for those
seeking the highly sought-after silver, gold and platinum
ratings verifying the “greenness” of a project.
Grassy Pavers ™ Soil Stabilization System is a LEED
point-eligible grass paver that can make any
building’s surroundings “green” by providing drainage,
paths, walkways, and trails that grow grass and percolate up
to ten inches of rainfall per hour instead of creating a
solid watershed that comes with the use of solid paving
materials such as asphalt or concrete.
