The Grasspave2 system consists of a base course, Hydrogrow polymer/fer-tilizer mixture, the Grasspave2 structure, sand fill, and hydroseeding or sod.
Grasspave2 and Gravelpave2 combine to make a porous parking lot for the City of White Rock’s Operations Yard in British Columbia.
This amphitheater’s grass, in Lincoln, CA, is reinforced with Grasspave2 to prevent compaction and remain attractive.

The Pentagon’s helicopter landing pads are reinforced with Grasspave2. Reliant Stadium in Houston, TX, has 30,800 m2 (317,000 sq. ft.) of grass parking with Grasspave2. Overflow parking at an apartment complex in Concordville, PA,
remains permeable with Gravelpave2.
A Gravelpave2 and Grasspave2 fire lane comple-ments the surrounding campus at Glendale Community College, Glendale, AZ.
Gravelpave2 is used in horse and pedestrian trails to stabilize and prevent rutting in Colorado Springs, CO.
Decorative gravel is supported by the Gravelpave2 cylinders and separated from the base course with the geotextile fabric.
