Installation Map



Bodpave®85 grass pavers / paving grids are a strong interlocking 100% recycled cellular porous plastic paving grid system for grass reinforcement, ground stabilisation & gravel retention for regular trafficked surfaces (pedestrian and vehicles). Bodpave®85 porous pavers can be installed with either a grass or gravel filled surface. BodPave® 85 permeable pavers are manufactured in the UK from UV Stabilised 100% recycled HDPE and are strong, chemically inert & non-toxic. Bodpave®85 porous paving provide a durable, safe and eco-friendly surface for trafficked areas.
APPLICATIONS
- Car Parks / Coach Parks (Grass or Gravel)
- Overspill / overflow grass car parks
- Emergency Service (Fire Access routes)
- HGV service access routes
- Aircraft taxiways & helipads
- Walkways and disabled access routes (DDA)
- Golf buggy paths
- Driveways and residential lawn parking
- SUDS source control
BodPave® 85 is a cost effective solution to worn & rutted grassed areas, displaced gravel and for source control of surface water run-off.
BENEFITS
- BodPave® 85 grass and ground pavers have a load bearing capacity up to 400t/m²
- Supplied as 4 pavers (1sqm) pre-connected for rapid ease of installation
- Manufactured from 100% recycled polymer
- BodPave® 85 grass pavers / ground reinforcement pavers are British manufactured
- Pavers filled with grass or gravel are SUDS source control compliant
- BodPave 85® grass pavers / gravel pavers allow a naturally pleasing, environmentally friendly & free draining grass or gravel surface
- Paving grids can be offset by 1 cell increments to fit around obstacles, while retaining a stong connection to adjacent pavers
FEATURES
The unique design of BodPave®85 resists lateral movement, improves traction and allows expansion & contraction whilst promoting optimum grass growth, root protection and surface stabilisation. The open cell structure provides high surface water infiltration and is suitable for source control within a SUDS profile.

BodPave® permeable paving grids should be installed onto a well prepared, free draining, firm and relatively level sub-base (typically a DoT (GSB Type or reduced fines Type 3) using either Boddingtons 'reduced-dig system' or by employing a full sub-base construction incorporating a Tensar TriAx™ TX160 geogrid reinforcement layer. The ground reinforcement porous paving grids simply connect together and are filled with either a sand:soil rootzone and seeded or turfed for a grass surface, or filled with an angular aggregate for a gravel surface as determined by the application. Construction profiles for each application will be determined by specific site conditions & loading criteria. Detailed design literature and technical support are available to download on the left of this page. Please note that for all BodPave®85 grass paver / gravel paver installations, we strongly recommend that all areas should have sufficient drainage prior to the installation. Failure to ensure this may result in the product not performing as intended.

| BodPave® 85 Typical Design Profile for grass or gravel surfaces | BodPave® 85 Plastic paving grid structure |
Grassed surfaces : Grass car parks, overflow grass car parks, grass paths, residential lawn parking, grass access routes with a full construction profile
Gravel surfaces : Gravel driveways, grave car parks, gravel coach parks, access roads, caravan standings with a full construction profile
'Reduced Dig' : Where firm or reinforced ground already exists and where lighter applications may be required for both grass and gravel surfaces
For confirmation of the correct construction profile required please contact our office on 01621 874200 to speak with one of our technical team.
The typical design profile includes reference to a Tensar TriAx TX160 geogrid and a BGT100 Geotextile which are both available from Boddingtons.
