EcoBlock (EB) Recycled Plastic Turf Block
Porous paving is increasingly used for access, parking lots, truck parking, and bus terminals. The first porous paving systems were made of concrete, but they have weight, flexibility and durability limitations that make recycled plastic grids more effective.
EcoBlock is manufactured from hanit®, an exceptionally strong, versatile and durable material made from 100% recycled plastic. EcoBlock comes ready to be installed on a level layer of grit over a porous granular base. The tongue and groove makes it easy to create a porous surface that is strong enough for trucks, buses, and forklifts. EcoBlock can have a gravel or grass finish, in keeping with the surroundings.
When used as part of a Low Impact Development (LID), EcoBlock is an integral part of any sustainable development with a porous base that allows rainwater to drain naturally. EcoBlock is self-draining, has a low environmental impact and contributes towards Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) credits. In addition to environmental benefits and the ability to take very high dynamic loads, EcoBlock flexes under pressure rather than breaking like equivalent concrete products. It does not crack if dropped, can be carried/installed by a single person and complies with manual handling guidelines.
-
- Permeable – Rigid open cellular design that is slip-resistant and gives exceptional support and water management
- High Load – Meets HS-25 truck loading requirements up to 66 tons
- Lightweight – Unlike concrete, units are under 20 lbs. so can easily be handled by a single person
- Application Options – Cells can be filled with gravel or soil and seeded
- Flexible – Polymer construction is semi flexible and resistant to cracking, unlike concrete
- Environmentally Friendly – Non-toxic to grass and made from 100% recycled plastic
- Stable – Tongue and groove connection improves stability
