IBRAN-X gravel grids stabilise gravel on any site.
IBRAN-X is the most versatile, heavy duty, plastic gravel grid system. Free draining and having incredibly high load capacity (500 tonnes/square metre), they are strong enough for any low cost gravel driveway, footpath, access road or commercial and industrial car parking.
Incredible load capacity - up to 500 tonnes per square metre!
At 500mm x 500mm x 40mm, you can quickly assemble up to 360m2 per hour, with minimal waste and minimal effort. The lightweight (860g per tile) but ultra heavy duty (500T/m2 load capacity) grid structure is fortified with UV stabilisers and an impact modifier which makes the grids unbelievably durable. And what's more, they're sustainably made, right here in the UK, from recycled plastic!
Careful design tailored for the trade.
We have continuously improved our gravel grid system over the past 10 years, refining the design based on feedback from the trade. During this time, we've supported over 100,000 projects with IBRAN-X. The trade love IBRAN-X for:
- Rapid installation - quickly cover large areas with less waste from cuts.
- Interlocking - making it strong for vehicular use, even on slopes.
- X shaped mesh - stops the stone from escaping beneath and forcing the grids upwards.
- Impact modified - our blend of plastic contains an additive which prevents shattering.
Install on any site to create wheelchair friendly parking areas, heavy duty access roads, gravel driveways and footpaths. IBRAN gravel parking grids make creating the perfect driveway quick and easy. You can fill IBRAN-X grids with any rough or smooth 5-35mm gravel or stone and it will bed into the cells of the gravel grids perfectly.
Made sustainably, with recycled plastics.
Surpassing industry standards and designed with the trade in mind, the IBRAN-X design incorporates all the features our customers have requested. As a sustainable manufacturer, our aim is to produce products that perform to the highest of standards because products that aren't up to the job, aren't sustainable.
And in line with our business goals of sustainability, the grids are the perfect size to be quick to install, without the need for large, wasteful offcuts. This saves you money and saves the environment!

Eco-friendly Solutions
Not only are IBRAN gravel grids easy to install and versatile, but they also have environmental benefits. Our plastic gravel grids are 100% recycled and made in the UK, lowering our carbon footprint in manufacturing and transport.
Here are just a few other benefits:
Erosion Control: By stabilising the soil, driveway gravel grids help prevent erosion caused by heavy rains, protecting surrounding vegetation and landscapes.
Stormwater Management: Gravel grids allow rainwater to permeate through the surface. This can help prevent flooding and erosion.
Reduce Surface Heat: Unlike traditional pavement, gravel grids can help lower surface temperatures, creating cooler environments.
Easy Installation
IBRAN gravel driveway grids are easy to install. The porous layers seamlessly interlock to hold all kinds of stone (10 - 30mm). Pave across on any smooth surface, even at a 25% gradient!
- Place the grids on a Type 1, 2, or 3 MOT sub-base or any well-compacted, smooth surface.
- Blind the sub base with a screed layer of sharp sand, covered with permeable membrane.
- Interlock the grids and fill them with bulk bags of stone.
This combination will keep both the grids and gravel in place, creating a solid, rut-free surface for driving.
Expect your new plastic gravel grids to last over 25 years, with minimal maintenance.
How to lay gravel gridsHigh-Quality Gravel Grids
If you're going to spend time and money doing something and you're staking your good name against it, you want to be sure the materials you're using are as good as your reputation.
That's why the IBRAN Gravel Grid is the best in class, drawing on years of trade experience and feedback from tradespeople to create an industry leading design that's:
- Made from 100% recycled, heavy duty, impact modified polypropylene to stop cracking and breakage.
- Incorporates an X shape mesh that forms a solid, impenetrable tray for the stone to sit in. This prevents uplift and damage by stopping stone moving underneath.
- Interlocking grids that connect by pushing down from above. This means you can lay hundreds of square metres per hour.
- Compatible with other IBRAN products (edging, etc.) designed to enable works to commence.
We're here to support you with exceptionally high standards that match your standards.
You'll be proud to put your name on it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Our product covers a broad spectrum of applications thanks to its heavy duty design, material and versatile specifications. Whilst IBRAN-X is a relatively simple product, a few questions are frequently asked.
What vehicles can drive on IBRAN-X?
IBRAN-X has been tested to withstand the load of almost any vehicle up to 500 tonnes per square metre, including cars, vans, motorhomes and trucks.
This makes it suitable for both domestic and industrial/commercial applications, such as parking, driveways, access roads and heavy duty surfacing.
What kind of stone should be used?
For gravel grids, we normally recommend a 20mm aggregate but with IBRAN-X you can use anything between 5mm and 30mm stone.
The best stone for a driveway is 20mm angular gravel. Any smaller and the gravel will get stuck in your tyre treads.
Is there a guarantee with IBRAN-X?
Yes - provided you can provide evidence of having followed our installation guide, then we offer a 15 year guarantee.
Is IBRAN-X SuDS Compliant?
Our grids are 100% permeable, making them one of the best Sustainable Urban Drainage Solutions.
Is IBRAN ISO-9001 certified?
Yes, ISO-9001 is just one of the many certifications we are proud to carry as a manufacturer.
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.
