Grass Paver
The PBM Grass Paver series provides open-cell, stepped, and cobblestone-profile concrete pavers for surfaces that require structural load-bearing performance combined with vegetation cover or permeable drainage. The range serves fire access lanes, overflow parking, driveways, and lawn-reinforced surfaces across Malaysian residential, commercial, and landscape projects.
Each profile in the series offers a different balance between paved appearance, void ratio, and green coverage — allowing specifiers to select based on traffic load, drainage strategy, surface texture, and visual outcome. Finishes range from smooth to coarse and textured, supporting both formal landscape settings and high-grip vehicular applications.
Applications
- Overflow and visitor parking
- Fire access lanes and emergency vehicle paths
- Driveways in residential and landscape zones
- Lawn reinforcement around clubhouses and pavilions

FAQ —
What is a grass paver?
A grass paver is a concrete paving unit with open cells or recessed sections that allow grass and water to pass through the paved surface. It supports vehicular or pedestrian loads while maintaining vegetation cover and surface drainage.
Where can grass pavers be used?
Common applications include fire access lanes, overflow and visitor parking, residential and commercial driveways, lawn-reinforced areas around amenities, garden paths, and slope stabilisation under turf.
Can vehicles drive over grass pavers?
Yes, when laid on a properly compacted sub-base with edge restraints. PBM grass pavers are sized for passenger and light commercial vehicle traffic. They are not intended for sustained heavy-vehicle loading.
How are grass pavers maintained?
Mow at the same height as the surrounding turf. Aerate openings annually if compaction is observed. Top up topsoil and reseed bare patches as required. Sweep paved sections to clear debris.
How long does grass take to establish in a new installation?
With turf plugs, full coverage typically takes 4–6 weeks under regular irrigation. Seeded installations may take 8–12 weeks depending on grass species and weather conditions.
What is included in a grass paver installation?
A typical installation comprises a compacted aggregate sub-base, a coarse sand bedding layer, the paver units, topsoil, grass seed or turf plugs, and perimeter edge restraints.
