Nature, welcome back

Stylish softening
with endless variations.

Due to extreme weather conditions and the hardening of our cities, a revised approach to public infrastructure and urban planning is essential. COBEFA attaches importance to sustainability and aligns its product range accordingly with Deer grass pavers: stylish solutions for reducing hard surfaces with endless variation possibilities.

Since its establishment, COBEFA has maintained a broad perspective on the world with a focus on innovation. We are eager to explore opportunities to evolve our product range with the times.

As a reputable concrete producer, we can offer Deer grass pavers in different patterns that are unique in the market due to their strong reinforcement and exceptional designs. Thus, there is a suitable design for every concept, allowing for endless creativity. The perfect way to harmoniously combine functionality (more water permeability) and aesthetics (timeless patterns).

Designed to last

Traditional grass pavers have the disadvantage of shifting due to their small size, and their high point loads can create depressions in the foundation. Deer's Industrial tiles are designed for a wide range of projects that need to withstand heavy traffic. For this, we provide two sizes. The Small Industrial grass pavers measure 2 m by 1 m, while the Large Industrial grass pavers are 2.5 m by 1 m. Both have a thickness of 14 cm and are double reinforced, providing the extra strength required for industrial applications. Thanks to the combination of size and reinforcement, the load is better distributed over the foundation, and they shift less easily. Installation guidelines depend on the load; permeability and grass opening vary by type.

The advantages of
our grass pavers

Deer offers an efficient solution for an acute problem, in a creative way. For an architect it’s an innovative way of designing, with few limits.

More freedom in the design phase

Your creativity is your guide in realizing a concept. Deer’s patterns add value by offering countless possibilities for your design. You no longer have to stick to traditional options.

Various filling options

Decorative gravel, grass, tree bark, .... Depending on the project, you determine the filling and thus the appearance of the grass pavers.

Combination of functionality and aesthetics

Where grass pavers were previously used mainly for practical purposes, Deer harmoniously combines practicality and style. From now on, you can integrate a customized design into every project. A breath of fresh air for every architect.

Reinforced grass pavers

The Deer grass pavers from Cobefa are 125 cm long, 62.5 cm wide, and 12 cm thick, and are fully reinforced. Due to the combination of size and reinforcement, the loads are better distributed over the foundation and shift less quickly.

The soil’s permeability is expressed by the K-value.
Threshold level: 5,4 x 104 m/s (540 litres of water per second per hectare)


We recommend always testing the substrate for water permeability (open-end test or well method).

A I GRASS PAVER

  • A1 Grass paver mix (only possible for BC 1 & BC 2)
  • A2 Gravel filler

B I UNDERLAYER / PAVING LAYER

  • B1 Crushed stone / topsoil mix
  • for grass paver mix (for BC 1, BC 2 & BC 3 only)
    Add a 5 cm layer of crushed stone/topsoil mix, rake and level.
    Raking is necessary to ensure that the grass pavers can bed down properly in the crushed stone/topsoil mix.

  • B2 Underlayer (paving layer)
  • Water permeability: minimum 5,4 x 104 m/s (10 times higher than the threshold level).
    Preferably porphyry 2/6.3. Sand or fine sand/grit mix is not recommended as it gets washed away or disappears into the foundation.

C I FOUNDATION

  • The purpose of the foundation is to conduct the water to the sub-base / substrate.
    Note: a saturated foundation reduces the load-bearing capacity.
    Load-bearing capacity and material according to load:

D I SUB-BASE

  • The sub-base provides additional load-bearing capacity (which is necessary depending on the depth of the load-bearing soil).

  • In addition, it protects the substrate against frost and provides some buffer capacity, depending on the infiltration capacity of the substrate and the rate of drainage. The thickness of the sub-base is determined on the basis of the above parameters.

  • The sub-base should preferably consist of natural crushed stone 0/32 with non-continuous distribution OR concrete rubble granulate 4/32 depending on the LA value. No mixed rubble or masonry rubble!

E I DRAINAGE PIPE (PINCH PIPE)

F I WATER-IMPERMEABLE MEMBRANE

G I NON-WOVEN GEOTEXTILE

H I SUBSTRATE
