Description
A heavy-duty cellular paving system designed for intensive usage and high-load traffic applications. The cells can be filled with 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 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 as part of a SuDS design. The cells are filled with an angular gravel 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.
Features and benefits:
- Lightweight.
- Flexible.
- Environmentally friendly.
- High loads.
- High vegetation yield.
- Stable.
