Wet Pour Surfacing Wet pour surfaces are an impact-absorbing, rubber crumb floor covering which is traditionally used in playgrounds, parks and other recreational areas. Over the course of three years, researchers at The Ocean Cleanup went on several data collection missions. This included the Multi-Level-Trawl expedition, where they analyzed the depth at which buoyant plastic debris may be vertically distributed; the Mega Expedition using vessels to cross the patch with many trawls at once; and the Aerial Expedition which involved the use of a plane flying at low altitude to observe the debris from above. 2015 – Multi-Level-Trawl Expedition

Asphalt concrete is responsible for 1.5 million tonnes of CO2 emissions a year, equivalent to 2% of global road transport emissions. That’s lousy for climate change. Placing your shed straight on top of your garden soil is just a recipe for disaster. When your shed is directly on soil, it means that there is no air circulation possible under the shed and this leads to various mould and moisture problems. Shed bases eliminate these issues by providing a flat surface that can bear the weight of your shed and also provide the air circulation and water drainage needed. This article is solely focused on the plastic type of gravel shed base and below we have reviewed the products that we think are the best value for money here in the UK. There are two main ways Geogrid paving can be used, either filled in with gravel or left ‘open’. When used as a base plastic grid for driveways, paths, access routes and car parks, filling the plastic grids with aggregate increases strength and creates a longer-lasting, more permanent structure. Best shade base overall: 8×6 GARDEN SHED BASE GRID = FULL ECO KIT 2.5m x 1.85m What I like to personally use. Channel Drainage Commonly found on driveways and parking areas, channel drains help to direct surface water to soakaways and sewers

Kneeling Pad - The Comfy Bull As resin bound installers spend a lot of time knelt, The Comfy Bull offers protection for knees and shins, helping to reduce fatigue and injury

Plastic Plyboard An eco-friendly and more durable alternative to traditional plyboard, RecoPly is made from 100% recycled plastic and lasts up to 25 years. Helping you to create pristine pathways and functional gravel spaces, our CORE PATH gravel stabilisation grid is an advanced solution that’s easy to install and maintain. Sampling at different locations within the same time period allowed a more accurate estimate of the size of the patch and the plastic drifting in it. LOCATION Specialist Sand Intended to be added to each mix to improve adhesion and increase strength, Chelford 52 sand is great for use in resin bound

Something to really think about is the sizes – if you plan well you may not need so much m2 as per the example below. The grids come in 85 by 61 ( FULL ECO KIT ) as well as 600 squared( Hawklok), and 500 squared – the remaining options in this article. Have a close look at the sizes, having a bit of a perimeter is not a problem, but don’t waste material as below. Installation But once the plastic is inside a path or road – how do you make sure it stays there? Might the plastic content be worn down into microplastics that pollute soil, water and air? Not only is this hugely beneficial, it also massively reduces the chance of floods. Our products prevent floods and therefore comply with the Flood and Water Management Act of 2010 which encourages the use of permeable surfaces to mitigate against flooding. Many existing roads work fine, but the problems with them lie in their manufacture and their emissions.

Strength wise, this is up there with the best of them, with top quality, hard wearing plastic that inspires confidence. I was a little worried about how thro und corner connectors would perform once the grid was filled and a load put on top of it, but I’m happy to say my worries were misplaced. Grass Protection Meshes Ideal for grassed pedestrian areas, grass protection meshes protect both the blade and root of the grass and helps prevent soil erosion Forced Action Mixers The SoRoTo range of forced action mixers offers machines which can mix up to 12 bags of gravel in each mix. Designed and built in Denmark. Resin Bound Tools Trowels, floats, sledges, spazzles and lutes can all be found in our range of tools for resin bound gravel installations. Featuring The Resin Bull and Ox Tools.This road, stretching from New Delhi to nearby Meerut, was laid using a system developed by Rajagopalan Vasudevan, a professor of chemistry at the Thiagarajar College of Engineering in India, which replaces 10% of a road's bitumen with repurposed plastic waste. We also use modeling to identify the pathways that bring plastic to the gyres. In 2022 our researchers published a new study based on over 6000 plastic objects (over 5 cm in size) captured in the GPGP by our System 001/B cleaning system in 2019. We then compared our field observations with our ‘virtual particle’ modeling results, allowing us to see the most statistically probable sources of GPGP plastic. Grass Protection Mats Great for use in playgrounds, events, attractions and more, grass protection mats can be used to create permanent or temporary walkways and standing areas Since 84% of this plastic was found to have at least one Persistent Bio-accumulative Toxic Persistent Bio-accumulative Toxic (PBT) chemical, animals consuming this debris are therefore ingesting the chemicals attached to the plastic.
