Greenbuild - Drivable Grass
Soil Retention provides retaining wall and ground systems to help stabilize soil and prevent erosion. One of their systems, Drivable Grass, is used in place of traditional paving (concrete, asphalt, other impervious materials). They state:
"Drivable Grass® is an aesthetically pleasing paving product that is designed to be used in place of concrete or asphalt driveways, patios, emergency and service vehicle access lanes, and parking areas for cars, RVs and boats. Drivable Grass® also makes an environmentally friendly solution to bioswales, v-ditches and roadside swales."

Thanks to Ziger/Snead for posting our product on your web site. I found it on 1st page Google searching Drivable Grass. I do wish to make a correction. Enviroflex and Drivable Grass are two different products. Enviroflex is a permeable articulating concrete block (ACB) for riverine scour protection, while Drivable Grass is a permeable, flexible and plant-able concrete paving system. You are showing Drivable Grass. Again thanks!
