14 Ground Reinforcement FirmGround Ground Reinforcement Mats Ground mats have increasingly become an alternative to concrete products as they are ideal for various building projects and easy to install. Currently, we are manufacturing four different ground mats FirmGround39, FirmGround45, FirmGround70 and FirmGround- Heavy which mainly differ in their compressive strength, making them suitable for use in a variety of building projects. All four ground mats are manufactured in the UK and are made from recycled high density polyethylene with other polymers added to reduce brittleness at low temperatures.

15 500x500x39mm (0.65 kg) FirmGround39 is a versatile interlocking ground mat which is ideal for grass and gravel infill. It has a compressive strength of 200 tonnes/sq.m. when filled with gravel and are specially designed to allow water to drain away whilst pockets at the base retain some water. This prevents grass from getting waterlogged or dying through lack of water. The individual ground mat parts are easily clipped together to build a surface which is ideal for car parks, pedestrian areas and access roads. FirmGround39

16 FirmGround45 500x500x45mm (1.2 kg) While the FirmGround45 can be used for similar building projects to the FirmGround39, it can however withstand a slightly greater compression and has a compressive strength of 200 tonnes /sq.m. when filled. It is also designed to allow water to drain away whilst pockets at the base retain some water. This prevents grass from getting waterlogged or dying through lack of water. The individual ground mat parts are easily clipped together to build a surface which is ideal for pedestrians, cars and light HGVs.

17 500x500x68mm (1.8 kg) Just like the FirmGround39 and 45, the FirmGround70 is ideal for car parks, pedestrian areas and access roads, but this ground mat can withstand a higher weight, which is 240 tonnes / sq.m. when filled. It is also designed to allow water to drain away whilst pockets at the base retain some water. This prevents grass from getting waterlogged or dying through lack of water. The individual ground mat parts are easily clipped together to build a surface which is ideal for car parks, pedestrian areas and access roads. FirmGround70

18 FirmGround Heavy 500x500x80mm (3.2 kg) FirmGroundHeavy has a compressive strength of over 300 tonnes per square metre unfilled. Therefore, this ground mat can withstand fully loaded wagon loads. It can also, like the other three ground mats, be used for car parks, pedestrian areas and access roads. Additionally, it is designed to allow water to drain away whilst pockets at the base retain some water. This prevents grass from getting waterlogged or dying through lack of water.
