Fleximas
Grass & Ground Reinforcement Range: Perfect for adding extra
stability to unpaved ground used to store or site and of course move
motorhomes. The Fleximas range of grass and ground reinforcement
products is one of the widest available in the UK, enabling existing
grass spaces to be utilised without causing rutting, sinking or smearing
of the grass by a wide range of traffic.
These
meshes offer a relatively low cost method of utilising existing grass
spaces for car parking and pedestrian access. Fleximas Grass
Reinforcement products are used as part of sustainable urban drainage
systems and are an ideal alternative to non-permeable solid surfaces
which are expensive and also tend to lead to flash flood run-off, or
indeed where the appearance of natural grass traffic routes and
driveways is preferred. Our product selector chart below will give you a
broad overview and we would be pleased to hear from you if you have any
specific queries or issues. Please do also check out our 'brief guide to
selecting a mesh' section below.

Practical information: A guide to choosing Mesh for Motorhome use:
I'd like to tell you there is a simple rule based on motorhome weight
but regrettably it isn't like that. All ground-works depend on an
assessment of the ground type and condition so we can only give you a
guide. You can seek professional advice and doubtless they will give you
good advice but with a fair degree of - costly - safety margin built in.
Questions an advisor might ask (without doing CBR checks) would include
... Has the ground been driven and walked on for many years and is well
compacted? ... Is it a field that has been ploughed and just recently
turned into a car park? ... Is the ground well drained? ... Is it on a
slope with the ground damp in one area and dry in another? ... Is there
a river that floods nearby? ... Is there a gateway that all the traffic
funnels through? ... Is the traffic volume light or heavy or just
occasional? ... What weight are the vehicles? Inevitably then
choosing a mesh depends on the answers to all those questions.
Guidance from an expert suggests ...
For a car standing alongside a caravan with ground that is medium to
firm Premium Grass Reinforcement Code FM6322 may be suitable. For a
motorhome on ground that is medium to firm the Heavy Duty Grass
Reinforcement Mesh FM5162 would be preferable. Going 'up a grade' or
improving the sub-base is normal if the ground is softer of course.
The Heavy Duty Mesh is described as "a heavier duty HDPE grass protection
mesh, with UV additive which has been produced specifically for
protection of grassy areas from heavy duty traffic, such as trucks and
cars. The mesh protects grass roots from damage and helps to prevent
rutting. For successful use, it is essential that the grass is allowed
to grow through the mesh before use to ensure that the surface is safe
and strong. • Heavy Duty HDPE, UV stabilised and rot resistant • Grass
grows through and intertwines with the mesh to create a strong surface
• Natural appearance – the mesh becomes invisible once the grass has
grown through • Suitable for overflow car parks, light aircraft runways,
grass paths and caravan parks.
Conclusion? For a motorhome start thinking around the Heavy
Duty Grass Reinforcement Mesh FM5162. Also remember that area counts so
do lay a generous patch with wide trackways and do pin down with u-pins
(right) according to the instructions.
Flexipave and Flexiweb are different - they are permeable 'pavers' that will grow grass and so
are laid on a sub-base as with all pavers. The depth and nature of the
sub-base decides the weight of vehicle that can be taken without the
paver sinking - up to 250 tonnes - but again there is
flexibility "if the ground is
firm it can be skimmed to the depth of the paver, a geotextile
put down, and a small amount of topsoil put down with the pavers on top
filled with soil & Grass seed/Turf or Stone" - a top notch motorhome
solution.
Sizes: Most Mesh is available in whole rolls of 10m rolls in both
1m & 2m widths, these can be cut down to make two 5m strips (remember
though that narrow strips have little load bearing capacity other than
on firm ground). The mesh can be cut to size with a pair of secateurs or
other heavy duty cutters. Flexipave is different - made up of 33cm
interlocking tiles so ideally suited to odd shapes.
