Description

X-Grid is our very own ground reinforcement grids that we designed and manufacture right here in the UK from 100% recycled plastic. The unique formulation and design of X-Grid have given it unrivalled benefits such as being able to withstand the compression of up to 428 tonnes per sqm when unfilled. X-Grid is also incredibly durable with long serviceable life, each panel is resistant to UV rays, chemicals and weather damage (from -50°C to +90°C) meaning it will not rot away or break down over time and can last for up to 25 years.

Whilst providing a solid surface, the high void ratio of each panel also makes it fully permeable and SuDS compliant which allows water to flow freely through each grid and maintain natural drainage routes. With flooding becoming a common occurrence across the UK, using a product that encourages natural drainage and helps to ease the pressure on our drainage systems (which have proved time and again they can struggle to cope with large amounts of rain) is a step in the right direction to help prevent localised flooding.

In addition to the previously mentioned benefits, X-Grid is also very easy to install due to its lightweight frame and specially designed slot and peg connection system. It is so easy to work that one person is able to lay 100m² of X-Grid in an hour. You also have a choice of how to fill your X-Grid once it is installed, you can choose a classic gravel finish for a migration and pot hole free driveway or car park, or you can fill it with soil and seed to create luscious grassed areas for applications such as access routes and grass paths.

As well as being used for driveways, car parks, access routes and paths, X-Grid is incredibly versatile and can also be used on golf courses, landscaping projects, to create garden building bases, in equestrian areas and on farms too.

ASK A QUESTION

How strong is X-Grid?

X-Grid has been independently tested by Lloyds British and is able to withstand up to 420 tonnes per sqm when unfilled.

How much gravel is needed to fill X-Grid panels?

We estimate that around 8kgs of gravel is required to fill one panel of X-Grid, meaning you will need 72kg of gravel to fill 1m² of X-Grid.

How do you install X-Grid?

X-Grid is very easy to install. Follow our installation guide for a simple and effective install.

Can X-Grid be cut to fit a specific area?

Yes, X-Grid can be easily cut using just hand-held saws to fit your project perfectly.

Is X-Grid easy to lay?

Yes, X-Grid is simple to lay thanks to its interlocking slot and peg system. When tested, one person was able to lay up to 100m² of X-Grid per hour.

Is there a difference between the three colours?

They are exactly the same product with the only difference being their colour. Green and white X-Grid is dyed to achieve their colours which is why they cost a little more than black X-Grid.

Are there examples of X-Grid being installed?

Yes, you can see some X-Grid case studies on our blog site.

What should be used to fill the X-Grid?

Once installed, fill your X-Grid with a gravel or aggregate. Preferably a 10-20mm diameter, well graded, clean and angular material. Fully rounded ‘pea shingle’ is not recommended due to probable migration of the gravel.
