BERA Grass Fix Eco+
BERA Grass Fix Eco+ reinforces grass surfaces using interlocking cellular panels. We supply and install the system for green parking and suitable access areas, with the base preparation, infill and grass establishment coordinated for the intended use.
What is BERA® Grass Fix Eco+?
BERA® Grass Fix Eco+ is a modular cellular grass reinforcement system manufactured using recycled HDPE through high-precision injection moulding.
It combines:
- Honeycomb confinement structure
- Integrated anchoring system
- Secure interlocking mechanism
This creates a stable, permeable, vegetated surface capable of supporting traffic while preserving natural grass growth.
Unlike concrete grass pavers, the system:
- Does not overheat
- Does not damage root systems
- Maintains a natural, green finish
Performance & Engineering Behaviour
Load Distribution
Cellular structure distributes loads across the surface, reducing subgrade stress.
Grass Protection
Prevents compaction and rutting while allowing root systems to develop.
Permeability
Fully porous system enables water infiltration and prevents runoff.
Thermal Performance
Low heat absorption protects grass from drying and scorching.
Sustainability & Environmental Performance
- Manufactured from recycled household waste
- Fully recyclable system
- Supports green infrastructure development
- Reduces carbon footprint vs concrete alternatives
- Enables permeable, natural surfaces
Typical Build-Up
- Subgrade preparation
- Sub-base: 20-40 cm compacted crushed stone (depending on load)
- Geotextile separation layer (300-500 g/m² recommended)
- Bedding layer: 5-7 cm sand/aggregate
- Placement of Grass Fix Eco+ panels
- Filling with soil/sand/peat mix (40/30/30)
- Seeding and watering

Installation and technical guidance
Design and procurement inputs
Confirm panel grade, infill, ground conditions, subbase, edge restraint and intended loading. Grass requires establishment and maintenance before trafficking.
Provide the product grade or performance specification, drawings or BOQ, quantities, site location and required date. We will define supply, delivery and any agreed installation and QA/QC responsibilities in the quotation.
Request a product-specific quotation →Installation and QA/QC
Inspect formation, base and drainage, panel condition and interlock, edges and infill, with the specified surface acceptance checks.
Use the current supplied-product procedure and the approved project inspection plan. Define responsibilities and acceptance criteria before installation.
SELECTION · SPECIFICATION · PROJECT SUPPLY
Choose the right specification
Select a complete permeable surface system for the proposed traffic, finish and ground conditions.
- Identify gravel or grass finish, loading, access requirements and the exact panel product.
- Design the subgrade, base, drainage and edge restraint for the site.
- Confirm infill, installation, establishment and maintenance requirements for the selected system.
Define the quality records
Inspect formation, base and drainage, panel condition and interlock, edges and infill, with the specified surface acceptance checks.
For a useful quotation: send the grade or performance specification, quantity, location, required date and scope. Availability, delivery and installation responsibilities are confirmed in the quotation.
