Strength of Pavement
GRASSY PAVERS™ provide the strength of pavement with the natural beauty of grass — eliminating soil compaction, reducing reflective heat, and allowing all-weather accessibility at a very cost-effective price.
Product Details
The strength of pavement. The natural beauty of grass.
GRASSY PAVERS™ is a grass paver soil stabilization system made of 97% recycled HDPE plastic. It supports over 97,000 lbs per square foot, fills with turf or aggregate, and installs with just a few materials and a few simple steps.
Panel construction & materials
Made from recycled plastic.
Recycled polymers, rigid cell structure, and a permeable design that works with the landscape instead of against it.
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™.
- Large panel format — 19-3/4” x 15-1/4” x 1-3/4” recycled HDPE panels
- Hexagonal cell structure — rigid cells filled with turf or aggregate; the applications are endless
- 97,000+ lbs/sq ft — supports all vehicle weights, including trucks and buses
- Rigid HDPE grid — distributes weight evenly and eliminates soil compaction and rutting
- Freeze-thaw stable — structural integrity is unaffected by freeze-thaw cycles, suitable for all U.S. climate zones
Think green
Endless benefits, one system.
Is your project at one with nature? Let us help. GRASSY PAVERS™ are the environmental alternative to solid paving.
Ecological
Progressive ecological thinking has established itself for applications that traditionally used solid paving. GRASSY PAVERS™ harmoniously blend your architecture into the landscape in an attractive, functional, environmentally responsible way.
Water Runoff
The porosity of the pavers eliminates the need for retention ponds, drainage systems, and other expensive means of dealing with runoff always associated with solid paving — while keeping functional green space.
Environmental
Made from recycled plastic, GRASSY PAVERS™ allow storm water to drain back into the underground soil rather than into storm drains — keeping your property hydrated and reducing runoff into local sewer systems.
LEED Point Eligible
The system is LEED point-eligible and can make any building's surroundings "green" with drainage, paths, walkways, and trails that grow grass and percolate up to ten inches of rainfall per hour.
Green Pays Back
Architects, engineers, planners, and developers are thinking green — natural over chemical, recycled over new, renewable over expendable. The payback in energy efficiency and water conservation easily exceeds higher initial costs.

Permeable paving
The smart choice for stormwater.
A permeable paving system that lets water pass through the surface and recharge the groundwater table naturally.
Traditional impermeable surfaces like concrete and asphalt create massive stormwater problems — every rainstorm washes pollutants, sediment, and debris directly into storm drains and waterways. GRASSY PAVERS™ can percolate up to 10 inches of rainfall per hour, handling even the heaviest precipitation events without ponding.
- Reduces runoff volume — water filters down through the pavers instead of sheeting off the surface
- Groundwater recharge — precipitation returns to the aquifer rather than being lost to storm drains
- Eliminates retention ponds in many applications, saving significant land area and construction cost
- Filters pollutants — soil and gravel layers naturally filter out sediment and contaminants
- Meets EPA and local stormwater requirements — ideal for developers navigating MS4 permits and local drainage ordinances
GRASSY PAVERS™ are listed as a stormwater Best Management Practice (BMP) and are recognized by municipal and state regulatory agencies as an effective stormwater management tool.
System cross-section
How the system works.
A layered sub-base handles both load distribution and drainage, from panel to native subsoil.
The GRASSY PAVERS™ system is designed with a layered sub-base that handles both load distribution and drainage. From top to bottom:
- GRASSY PAVERS™ panel — recycled HDPE hexagonal cells filled with turf or aggregate
- Sand or fine gravel leveling layer — provides a stable, level installation surface
- Compacted gravel base — distributes load and stores stormwater temporarily
- Geotextile fabric — prevents sub-base migration while allowing water passage
- Native subsoil — receives infiltrated water for groundwater recharge
Installing GRASSY PAVERS™ is easy — it requires just a few materials and a few simple steps. See our Installation page for the full process.
Application detail
Parking lots.
Replace one of the largest sources of urban impervious surface and turn a stormwater liability into an asset.
Replacing traditional asphalt parking areas with GRASSY PAVERS™ permeable pavers transforms a stormwater liability into an asset. Benefits of grass paver parking lots include:
- Reduced heat island effect compared to asphalt surfaces
- Stormwater management on-site — no retention pond required in many cases
- Attractive green appearance that enhances property value
- LEED point eligibility for sustainable site credits
- Supports all vehicle weights including trucks and buses at 97,000+ lbs/sq ft
- All-weather accessibility — no mud, no ruts, even in wet conditions
Overflow parking areas, event parking, and occasional-use lots are ideal candidates for grass paver systems. See our Specifications page for load test data and downloadable parking lot design guides.
Application detail
Driveways.
An excellent alternative to concrete or asphalt for residential and commercial driveways.
GRASSY PAVERS™ create a durable, stable driving surface while preserving the natural look of your landscape and allowing water to infiltrate naturally.
- Eliminates ruts and compaction problems common with gravel driveways
- Controls erosion on sloped driveways and embankments
- Allows drainage from problem areas without expensive drainage systems
- Blends naturally into the surrounding landscape
- Low maintenance compared to asphalt or concrete
- Suitable for all residential vehicles including RVs and heavy trucks
Whether filled with grass seed or decorative gravel, a driveway built with GRASSY PAVERS™ provides all-weather functionality with year-round curb appeal.
Performance
All-weather accessibility.
A firm, stable surface in all weather conditions — no mud, no ruts, no downtime.
Firm When Saturated
Unlike bare turf areas that become muddy and impassable during rain or after heavy use, GRASSY PAVERS™ maintain a firm, stable surface in all weather. The rigid HDPE grid structure distributes weight evenly, preventing soil compaction and rutting even when the ground is saturated.
Reliable Year-Round Access
Ideal where dependable access is critical: fire lanes, emergency vehicle staging areas, ADA-accessible paths, RV parks, event grounds, and equestrian areas. The panels are unaffected by freeze-thaw cycles, making them suitable for all climate zones across the United States.
