Grass Protection (GS) Plates
Naylor Grass Protection plates are manufactured using prime grade polypropylene. These plates are non-erosive and designed to protect grass root growth under intensive continuous loading conditions eg: from pedestrian to vehicular applications.
The unique design configuration incorporates an excellent foot print area, ensuring plates do not penetrate the root zone.
Naylor GA Plates are an important contribution to SUDS, since they represent a water retentive alternative to hard landscaping and other non-permeable surfaces.
Naylor GS Plates are also suitable with decorative chipping creating and aesthetically pleasing hard standing ground which effectively filters surface water through the plates.

Advantages
- 94% Open surface area – gives greater grass coverage
- Lightweight
- Quick installation (once sit preparation is carried out)
- Allows rainwater to pass back into the watercourse, preventing water run off (compliant with current practice on SUDS)
- No need for on line or point drainage
- Flexes under loading
- Interlocking system
- Easy to cut to shape (not less than 1/3 of original size)
- 15° Angle – considerably greater than vertical structured grass plates – providing a greater resistance to horizontal movement
- Castellated top for improved grip
