ECCOdal is the grass grid for a green, stable and water-permeable surface. It is made from 100% recycled material, bears the TÜV certification mark and comes in a handy 80 x 80 cm format for quick installation.

  • Geometric grid of curved concrete cells creating a repeating pattern

    Load-bearing up to 600 tonnes/m²

    ECCOdal supports total weights of up to 16 tonnes and axle loads of up to 10 tonnes (DIN 14090:2023-05), and depending on the infill can bear loads of up to 600 tonnes/m². This makes the grass paver suitable for through truck traffic, fire access routes and heavily loaded driveways and car parks. TÜV-certified for proven quality and durability.

    Belgian product, delivered quickly and easy to install

    ECCO grass pavers are produced from A to Z in Belgium. This enables fast delivery and guarantees strict quality control. The 80 × 80 cm (0.64 m²) format is larger than most grass pavers on the market, meaning a car park or path can be laid more quickly. The slabs are still light enough to be handled by one person. 

  • Black plastic grid panel with circular holes, on white background

    Frost-resistant down to -20°C in 100% recycled material

    The blend of recycled PE-PP remains flexible at low temperatures, down to -20°C. Grass pavers made from other materials can crack or deform in freezing weather: ECCOdal doesn’t. The expansion joints also absorb thermal stresses during high summer temperatures, keeping the structure stable all year round.

Technical specifications ECCOdal

ECCO grass pavers are produced in Belgium and tested for compressive strength and durability. The compressive strength is certified by TÜV (DIN 14090:2023-05). The values in the table below serve as a reference; actual load-bearing capacity depends on the type of infill and the quality of the sub-base.

ECCO parking caps

A grass car park looks green and tidy, but without clear markings vehicles quickly end up parking outside the bays. On grass paving blocks, traditional road markings aren’t an option. The ECCOdal marking studs are designed to define parking bays on ECCOdal grass paving blocks. With their vertical tension ribs, the studs clamp firmly in place, even under heavy use.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

  • Can gravel also be placed in ECCOdal grass grids?

    That’s possible in theory, but it’s not recommended. Grass and gravel require an opposite approach:

    • For grass you need a grass grid where roots can easily take hold. For gravel, you actually want to prevent weed growth, including by using an anti-root membrane.
    • Grass grids have larger mesh openings to make sowing easier. Gravel mats have smaller openings so the gravel stays in place better.

    For gravel applications, we recommend ECCOgravel gravel mats.

  • Can I drive over ECCOdal grass grids?

    Yes, provided there is a solid foundation.

    ECCOdal grass grids are intended to reinforce green areas so that, if necessary, vehicles can drive over them without completely damaging the grass. Typical applications include fire access roads, car parks and driveways to a carport where people park a trailer. With the right foundation, ECCOdal can also withstand occasional heavy traffic, and the foundation can be designed to manage runoff water from the roadways as well.

    What to avoid

    In areas that are used very intensively or where speeds above 10 km/h are reached, we recommend constructing the trafficked areas in a bound material such as asphalt or concrete.

  • Is the ECCOdal suitable for wheelchair users?

    Yes, the ECCOdal is perfectly suitable for wheelchair users.

     


     

  • Up to and including which traffic class can the ECCOdal grass pavers be used?

    The ECCOdal with a height of 4 cm is suitable for use class B (normal load, light traffic) and the ECCOdal with a height of 5 cm is suitable for use class A (intensive load).

  • What type of grass can I use for ECCOdal grass grids?

    We recommend grass seeds that root deeply and are therefore better able to withstand dry periods. Your grass seed supplier can provide you with more information about this.
