Final Notes
Selecting the right EcoGrid depends on three things: the surface finish, the ground conditions, and the type of traffic. The range covers everything from garden paths through to high-load logistics yards, with decorative options where appearance matters.
Every EcoGrid is made from 100% recycled polyethylene and comes with a 20-year guarantee - making it a durable and sustainable choice.
