IBRAN Gravel Grids - the Professionals' Choice.
Access unparalleled load capacity and ease and speed of installation. IBRAN®-X40 gravel grids are your go-to for all applications including gravel driveways, parking areas, emergency access roads and other reinforced or stabilised gravel surfaces.
Create a neat, robust surface you can drive any vehicle over. We use only environmentally friendly, 100% recycled plastic (PP+HDPE) to cope with all weather conditions without becoming brittle.
With over 100,000 successful installations and over 10 years of constant improvement, we have refined our gravel retaining grids. In that time we introduced thick, ribbed, 3.5mm cell walls and a new, X-shaped, moulded base lattice that stops stones migrating downwards while pulling the foot of the walls together, preventing the collapse that follows when a wall buckles from the bottom up.
Couple it with a speedy, roll-out geotextile beneath, chosen to suit your ground, for the most effective anti gravel migration system in the industry.
The result is a uniquely effective gravel reinforcement mesh system that is extremely durable yet simple to set up. Contractors in markets worldwide are calling these the "best plastic gravel grids they've ever used".
For gravel parking areas, our grid system carries the axle loads you would expect of a bound surface such as concrete or asphalt (25 tonne / 27.5 US ton axle loads). IBRAN®-X40 gravel mats improve drainage of your stabilised gravel surface, discharging rainwater to the ground quickly and reducing surface water flooding.
Large enough (4 per square metre / 3.7 per square yard) to make installation quick and easy, small enough to avoid excess waste. Our plastic gravel driveway grid system makes permeable surfacing projects quick and cost effective, on domestic driveways and on larger commercial applications alike. Installed correctly, our gravel grids will stand the test of time.
They are the perfect, eco friendly solution for preventing gravel migration, even on slopes of up to 25%.

What is IBRAN-X?
IBRAN-X is a high-strength permeable paving grid system designed for gravel retention and ground reinforcement. Made from PP (polypropylene) and HDPE (high-density polyethylene), it creates stable, permeable surfaces for driveways, parking areas, and many other applications.
The unique cell design prevents gravel migration while allowing natural drainage.
Can you cut gravel grids?
Most plastic gravel grids can be cut to fit any shape or size of area, with the offcuts usually able to be recycled.
The larger the grid, the larger the offcuts can be. The smaller the grid, the more labour is involved in installing them - especially if they are interlocking grids. Our design sits in the sweet spot.
500mm square grids are considered the gold standard, and as such our grid is designed to this specification.
What are the benefits of using IBRAN-X?
IBRAN-X gravel grids offer multiple benefits:
- Exceptional strength (tested to 500 tonnes per square metre)
- 100% permeability for SuDS compliance
- Minimal maintenance requirements
- Rapid installation using our interlocking system
- UV stability to prevent degradation
- Eco-friendly construction using recycled materials
- Prevents gravel migration
- Eliminates rutting
- Creates wheelchair-friendly surfaces when properly installed
What vehicles can drive on IBRAN-X Gravel Grids?
IBRAN-X has been independently tested to withstand loads of up to 500 tonnes per square metre, making it suitable for everything from domestic vehicles to heavy goods vehicles.
This makes it ideal for:
- Residential driveways
- Commercial parking lots
- Emergency access routes
- Industrial applications
What kind of stone should be used with IBRAN-X?
For optimal performance, we recommend using 20mm angular gravel with IBRAN-X grids. However, the system can accommodate aggregates between 5mm and 35mm.
Angular gravel is preferred over rounded as it locks together better, creating a more stable surface.
For driveways specifically, 20mm angular gravel provides the best balance of stability and drainage while being less likely to get caught in tire treads.
How are IBRAN-X grids installed?
Installation follows these key steps:
- Excavate to the required depth (typically 150-300mm depending on application)
- Install a geotextile membrane to prevent upward migration of sub-base materials
- Add and compact Type 1 or Type 3 sub-base to the required depth
- Add a thin laying course of 10-20mm sharp sand or granite dust
- Lay IBRAN-X grids, connecting them using the interlocking system
- Fill with chosen aggregate
For detailed instructions, please consult our installation guide.
Is there a guarantee with IBRAN-X?
Yes - provided you can provide evidence of having followed our installation guide, then we offer a 25 year guarantee.
Is IBRAN-X Gravel Grids SuDS Compliant?
Our gravel grids are 100% permeable, making them one of the best Sustainable Urban Drainage Solutions.
Is IBRAN-X Wheelchair Friendly?
In the UK, there are no documents or set standards for approval of our system except for the government's own guidance, known as Part M.
To be part M compliant, the surfacing choice needs to demonstrably smooth enough to allow a wheelchair user to manoeuvre their wheelchair, whilst supporting their weight.
Using IBRAN gravel grids is the only way to make a gravel surface suitable wheelchair friendly.
This video demonstrates the ease of wheelchair use: demonstration video.
Is IBRAN ISO-9001 certified?
Yes, ISO-9001 is just one of the many certifications we are proud to carry as a manufacturer.
What are gravel stabilisation grids?
Gravel stabilisation grids are a type of ground reinforcement system made from PP (polypropylene) and HDPE (high-density polyethylene). They are used to create a stable, permeable, and aesthetically pleasing surface for a variety of applications, including driveways, walkways, and landscaping.
The grids are made up of a series of interlocking cells that hold the gravel in place, preventing it from shifting and moving underfoot.
What are the benefits of using gravel stabilisation grids?
There are many benefits to using gravel stabilisation grids, including:
- Stability: By preventing the gravel from spreading, they ensure a consistently stable and level surface
- Permeability: By allowing the passage of water, they reduce runoff, which reduces flooding in built-up areas by allowing for natural drainage
- Durability: The combination of PP and HDPE materials creates a robust system that is resistant to rot, decay, and pests
- Aesthetics: Gravel stabilisation grids can be used to create a variety of different patterns and designs
- Low maintenance: Once installed, gravel stabilisation grids require very little maintenance
Can I use gravel stabilisation grids on all types of ground?
Gravel stabilisation grids can be used on a variety of different ground types, including clay, sand, and gravel. However, it is crucial to ensure that the ground is properly prepared with a stable, compacted sub-base before installation. This foundation work is essential for the long-term performance of the system.
How long do gravel stabilisation grids last?
Gravel stabilisation grids made from PP and HDPE materials are extremely durable and can last for many years. However, the lifespan of the grid will depend on:
- The specific application
- The quality of installation and sub-base preparation
- The amount of traffic it receives
Do I need planning permission to install gravel stabilisation grids?
In most cases, you will not need planning permission to install gravel stabilisation grids. However, it is always best to check with your local planning authority to be sure.
How much do gravel stabilisation grids cost?
The cost of gravel stabilisation grids will vary depending on the size of the area you need to cover and the specific type of grid you choose. However, they are generally a cost-effective solution for creating a stable and durable gravel surface.

What is the difference between a moulded mesh base and a heat-welded membrane?
A moulded mesh base is formed as part of the grid in a single moulding operation, so it is structurally integral to the cell walls. A heat-welded membrane is a separate sheet of fabric bonded to the underside of the grid after moulding.
The distinction matters for two reasons:
- Retention: a moulded mesh physically arrests downward migration of aggregate into the sub-base, and cannot delaminate or tear away, because it is the same piece of material as the grid.
- Structure: the mesh ties the base of every cell wall to its neighbours, resisting the tendency of cells to splay open under vertical load and under torsional loading from steering, braking and turning vehicles.
A bonded fabric contributes nothing to the structural performance of the grid. It is a filtration layer, not a reinforcement.
Does a heat-welded membrane stop gravel migrating downwards?
Only while it remains intact.
A thin non-woven fabric bonded to the underside of a grid will suppress weed growth and will initially hold back fines. The problem is where it sits: directly beneath the aggregate it is meant to retain.
Angular gravel is the aggregate specified for almost every stabilised gravel application, and angular gravel has sharp arrises. Under repeated point loading from vehicle traffic, those arrises work against a lightweight fabric until it is punctured. Once punctured, the membrane no longer performs the retention function and aggregate begins to migrate into the laying course and sub-base.
A moulded mesh base does not share this failure mode. It is rigid moulded polymer, not a fabric skin.
Does the mesh base do anything other than retain gravel?
Yes, and this is the part most specifiers overlook.
The cell walls of any gravel grid are, in effect, a honeycomb of thin vertical webs. Loaded vertically, and particularly loaded torsionally when a vehicle turns on the spot or brakes hard, those webs want to deflect outwards at their base. Once cells begin to splay, the grid loses its confining effect on the aggregate and the surface starts to rut and spread.
A moulded mesh base restrains the foot of every cell wall, holding the geometry closed and transferring load laterally across the panel rather than into individual webs.
Load performance and cell base design cannot be considered separately.
Do I still need a separate membrane if my grid has a mesh base?
We recommend using both. They are not doing the same job.
- The moulded mesh base retains aggregate and closes the cell structure, at surface level.
- A geotextile membrane laid at formation level, beneath the sub-base, prevents upward migration of subgrade fines into the granular layers and provides separation and, depending on grade, reinforcement.
Two different functions, at two different levels in the build-up. Combining a mesh-based grid with a correctly specified geotextile gives you retention at the surface and separation at formation.
Relying on a single bonded fabric to do both is a compromise driven by convenience rather than engineering.
Will a membrane-backed grid save me time on installation?
Marginally, and it is worth being honest about the scale of the saving.
Rolling out geotextile across a prepared formation is one of the quickest tasks in the entire installation. On a typical domestic driveway it is a matter of minutes.
Set that against the consequence of specifying the wrong separation layer, or of a bonded fabric failing in service. Excavating and relaying a failed driveway is measured in days and in thousands of pounds.
Choosing the membrane grade to suit the subgrade, the traffic and the drainage strategy is a decision worth making deliberately, at formation level, rather than having it made for you at the factory.
Why does IBRAN not bond a membrane to the underside of its grids?
Because it would substitute a consumable fabric for a structural feature.
Our grids are moulded with an integral mesh base that performs the retention function permanently and contributes to the load and torsional performance of the panel. Bonding a fabric on top of that would:
- Add cost
- Add a component with a shorter service life than the grid itself
- Remove the installer's ability to specify the right geotextile for the ground conditions they are actually dealing with
We would rather give you a grid that does not depend on a fabric, and let you choose the membrane the project needs.

Derfor er IBRAN grusarmering det rigtige valg for fagfolk
Når dit navn står på opgaven, afspejler hvert eneste materiale din standard. Fagfolk i hele Europa vælger IBRAN – fordi vores grusarmeringsgitre er konstrueret til at overgå de mere kluntede alternativer, der lover tidsbesparelse, men sjældent holder i praksis.
I modsætning til oversized gitre med membranunderlag, der bøjer under belastning og giver spild fra akavede afskæringer og skrøbelige samlinger, leverer IBRAN en fagklar løsning designet til hastighed, styrke og nul kompromis:
- Kompakt, modulært format giver hurtigere håndtering, lettere tilskæring og mindre spild på pladsen. Ingen kamp med 2 m plader eller kasserede afskæringsstrimler – bare effektiv dækning uden overskydende plast.
- X-formet bundbakke låser gruset fast og forhindrer stenmigration under gitterne samt eliminerer løft – noget membraner simpelthen ikke kan, når de perforeres af tilslag eller lægger sig ujævnt.
- Slagmodificeret, 100% genanvendt polypropylen modstår revner, brud og kuldeskørhed – langt mere holdbart end skrøbelige bikubegitre med tynde lodrette vægge og ikke-bærende tekstiler.
- Tryksamling ovenfra for hurtig montering – læg hundredvis af kvadratmeter i timen, alene eller som hold, med øjeblikkelig låsning og minimal forberedelse.
- Fuldt kompatibelt med IBRAN kantafslutninger og tilbehør, så du kan gå fra forberedelse til afslutning uden forsinkelser, omveje eller uforenelige systemer.
IBRAN gitre er ikke overingeniørede for syns skyld: de er smart konstruerede til at give dig hurtigere montering, præcise afslutninger og færre reklamationer. Og fordi der ikke er nogen skrøbelig membran syet til bunden, bliver det, du lægger, liggende.
Læg det én gang. Ingen bøjning, ingen bøvl, ingen fejl.
Miljøvenlige løsninger
IBRAN grusarmeringsgitre er ikke blot nemme at montere og yderst alsidige – de har også dokumenterede miljøfordele. Vores gitre i genanvendt plast fremstilles bæredygtigt i EU af 100% genanvendte polymerer, hvilket reducerer CO₂-aftrykket i både produktion og transport og låser plastaffald permanent inde i et nyttigt produkt.
Her er blot nogle af de øvrige fordele:
Erosionssikring: Ved at stabilisere undergrunden forebygger grusarmeringsgitre erosion forårsaget af kraftig regn og beskytter omgivende beplantning og terræn.
Regnvandshåndtering: Grusarmeringsgitre tillader regnvand at nedsive gennem overfladen, hvilket understøtter lokal afledning af regnvand (LAR) og reducerer risikoen for oversvømmelse og erosion.
Reduceret overfladetemperatur: I modsætning til traditionel asfalt- eller betonbelægning kan grusarmeringsgitre bidrage til lavere overfladetemperaturer og et køligere lokalmiljø.
Enkel montering
IBRAN grusarmeringsgitre er nemme at montere. De permeable lag låser indbyrdes og holder alle typer sten (10–30mm) på plads. Læg dem på ethvert jævnt underlag – selv ved 25% hældning.
- Placer gitterne på et komprimeret bærelag af knust beton eller stabilt grus (svarende til bærelagskvalitet A/B) eller et andet velkomprimeret, jævnt underlag.
- Afret bærelaget med et tyndt udligningslag af skærver eller groft sand, dækket med et permeabelt geotekstil.
- Lås gitterne sammen og fyld dem med sten i bulk.
Denne opbygning holder både gitre og grus på plads og skaber en solid, sporkøringsfri køreflade.
Forvent at dine grusarmeringsgitre i genanvendt plast holder i over 25 år med minimalt vedligehold.
