  • Emergency vehicle access routes.

Description

A heavy-duty cellular paving system designed for intensive usage and high-load traffic applications. The cells can be filled with topsoil and seeded or with gravel to provide a robust structural surface. Truckcell™ is manufactured from 100% recycled plastic and is strong enough to withstand trafficking from vehicles with high wheel loadings such as trucks, buses, fire appliances and refuse vehicles.


The polymer construction is semi-flexible, giving it a greater resistance to cracking than concrete alternatives and each unit weighs less than 9 kg, which keeps it well within Health and Safety manual handling guidelines. This high performance lighter-weight product facilitates simple manual installation and can greatly reduce installation time and site plant costs.


Once installed, the open-cell structure is filled with a free draining material to form a pervious surface which can provide surface water source control within a SuDS design. The cells are typically filled with either an angular gravel or with a growing media and then seeded to provide a green vegetated finish in accordance with the aesthetic and maintenance requirements of the project application.


Cell infill:

  • Gravel: 7–10 mm diameter, clean hard, free-draining, angular aggregate or gravel.
  • Grass: Good quality, free-draining, friable top-soil with no contaminants or oversized debris. 35–50 g/m² amenity-blend, low-maintenance seed to specification; pre-seeding fertilizer followed up with appropriate seasonal fertilizer.


Features and benefits:

  • Anti-skid option.
  • Lightweight.
  • Flexible.
  • Environmentally friendly.
  • High loads.
  • High vegetation yield.
  • Stable.
