intro
GRASTIC (plastic grass) was developed for dry, windblown terrain. Sand dunes,lake beds, mine dumps and fill slopes contribute dust and runoff. Water is often an issue for traditional grasses and plants. For soft dirt and sand the plugs are driven vertically into the ground and the blades flop over like a shingle. They are free standing. A hand tool may be used in easy ground or a patented driver anchors plugs 1 to 3 feet deep. This is ideal for sands, powders and granular slags. In more compacted ground, an auguring impact drive is added to the process. The longevity and durability of grastic will be determined by it's composition and application. A 1 or 2 year vegitable based plastic might be available.A long lasting polymer might be competitive. 1. Waiting for plants to grow or rains may not work. 2. Landfills are now being lined and covered with approved plastic sheeting. Such a formulation might suit grastic in the many areas where sealing off the surface is not needed.
