Parks & Public Spaces

Durable, permeable surfaces for public access and outdoor infrastructure

Geohex is a high-strength, permeable ground stabilization system designed for parks, pathways, and public spaces where durability, accessibility, and environmental performance are critical.

Geohex reinforces the ground surface while maintaining natural drainage, helping councils and land managers deliver stable, low-maintenance access areas without sealing the ground or disrupting natural water flow.

The challenge in public spaces

Public access areas must balance durability, safety, and environmental responsiblity.

Common challenges include:

Soft or unstable ground in high-foot-traffic areas
Erosion and surface degradation from weather and runoff
Muddy or uneven paths which are impacting accessibility
Ongoing maintenance in parks and open spaces
The need to preserve natural drainage and landscapes

These challenges are often amplified in environmentally sensitive or high-use areas.

Typical park & public space applications

Geohex is commonly used in public and outdoor environments such as:

Pedestrian walkways and shared paths
Park access routes and service areas
Trails and boardwalk approaches
Event and overflow access zones
Maintenance vehicle routes within parks

Final installation details depend on traffic type, frequency, and site conditions.

PERFORMANCE GUIDANCE

Typical performance groupings

Parks and public space applications typically align with Light-Duty performance groupings, depending on pedestrian use, maintenance vehicle access, and site conditions. Detailed base guidance, installation cross-sections, and CAD drawings are available in the Technical Hub.

Designed for public use and environmental performance

In public environments, Geohex supports:

Long-term surface stability
Improved drainage and runoff control
Reduced surface maintenance
Flexible design solutions that adapt to changing site needs.
