Rootstone®.

Engineered loadbearing sub-base for the support and sustainability of grassed fire lanes, car parks and access roads.


Sole importers of Golpa® grass paving system Hoofmark (UK) Ltd., have joined forces with Tarmac Top Sport Ltd., the U.K.’s leading producer of rootzone materials to produce Rootstone®.


Rootstone® is produced from recycled aggregates and selected composts and can be produced to comply with the emergency access route requirements of Building Regulations 1991. B5 section 17, and at the same time, providing 100% sustainable grass cover.


Rootstone® is laid as a simple layer in lieu of the conventional dual layer of base and rootzone, resulting in major savings in labour and excavation costs.

ROOTSTONE®
• Produced from recycled raw materials • Eliminates a construction layer
• Provides 100% grass coverage • S.U.D.S. Compliant
• Can by used in conjunction with geogrids on weak ground • Reduces excavation depth by 100mm with consequent savings on labour and disposal costs
