There are few products more eco-friendly in parking and road construction than leiyuan grass grid pavement, even in leed structures. Not only does the grass grid reduce stormwater runoff, preventing pollutants from entering natural aquifers through bioremediation, but also prevents the Heat Island Effect caused by concrete and asphalt structures , contributing to more steady, cooler temperatures and fewer hot spots. Leiyuan’s grass grid is made from 100% post consumer recycling plastic, compared to using virgin plastic, grass grid from leiyuan is manufacturing process saves 80 % of carbon dioxide emissions. Comparatively, concrete production causes up to 7% of our planet’s carbon dioxide emissions while using grass pavement systems instead of concrete lowers air and water pollution while creating a natural carbon sink.

Grass paving has proven to be a great design tool for landscape architects when you need a green space to be functional as well as decorative. If you’re planning to design overflow parking at event sports venues, centers, restaurants and churches, leiyuan grass pavers with grass fill are an excellent choice. By providing ground stability by way of plastic ground reinforcement, leiyuan pavers remain virtually invisible in a grass paved surface while heavy rains or flooding that would turn a typical grass parking area into an undriveable mudpit leave the area virtually untouched. Civil engineers turn to grass pavement products when permeability of a site is needed. With grass fill provides an excellent way to maintain or or even improve a site’s runoff rate from before development, Leiyuan helping keep streams, ponds and rivers clean and free of runoff chemicals.

the Heat Island Effect creates consistently higher temperatures than surrounding areas because traditional pavement methods make them retain more heat in cities and industrial complexes. At the same time, water-impervious structures like buildings, concrete and asphalt all raise localized temperature by absorbing solar heat, creating hot spots and a higher heat island index while promoting harmful runoff. Grass grid pavement is an excellent option to combat this heat gain by cooling and steadying the local environment.
