Hy-Tex GrassMesh Reinforcement & Protection Meshes |
 |
Introduction
The Hy-Tex GrassMesh range are robust extruded high-density polyethylene grids which are typically used to provide a discrete method to improve wear resistance and reinforcement whilst maintaining the appearance of grassed areas used as temporary car parks or that experience heavy pedestrian use - thus offering organisers of outdoor events with a practical method to preserve grassed areas.
They are also ideal for recreation areas, caravan parks, access routes, light aircraft taxiways and urban parkland verges.
All grids are UV stabilised, tough, and rot proof to provide a long service life.
Hy-Tex GrassMesh Light is best suited to light load permanent applications such as pedestrian and disabled paths or anti ball plugging on golf courses.
Hy-Tex GrassMesh Medium is a premium grade, tough, flexible, open mesh designed for permanent turf reinforcement on grass areas used for occasional car parks and footpaths.
Hy-Tex GrassMesh Heavy-Duty is a stronger, dense, grass protection mesh with a rough finish for temporary and permanent applications, which is designed for more immediate access and/or to withstand heavier loads or more frequent trafficking from vehicles and trucks (up to 8 tonnes per axle) while protecting the grass from damage and rutting.
Hy-Tex GrassMesh GrassTrack is a heavy-duty mesh bonded to a geotextile which is designed to control pumping of mud up through the mesh on grass areas which are particularly wet or muddy. With the geotextile laid to the ground GrassTrack can be unrolled over problem areas to allow access by cars and light vans; while laid with the geotextile to the top it provides safe and clean access by pedestrians.
Installation
For permanent applications it is strongly recommended that installation be carried out during the growing season to allow a strong interlock between the mesh and the grass roots, as the intertwining of the roots with the mesh gives the turf the strength to resist light traffic and temporary car parking. Therefore sufficient time must be allowed for the grass to fully establish before using the area (Especially Light and Medium grades).
It is also recommended to address any drainage issues before installing the meshes.
Once fixed in place grass will grow through the mesh and may then be mown, rolled and fertilised as usual. When fully established the mesh will be invisible and the turf will have a normal appearance.
