Description
BERA Gravel Fix® Pro is an advanced polypropylene cellular gravel stabilisation system designed to create stable, permeable and load-bearing surfaces.
Each panel incorporates a factory-bonded nonwoven geotextile layer (Typar®) which:
- Prevents subgrade contamination
- Enhances filtration performance
- Reduces weed growth
This creates a structurally stable gravel surface that eliminates rutting, migration and settlement under traffic loading.
