How EZ Roll Gravel Pavers Work
NDS EZ Roll Gravel Pavers reduce soil erosion on a variety of road bed surfaces. They help maintain the look and functionality of a gravel or shell driveway, path, or road. Each roll's honeycomb cells are thermally bonded to a continuous DuPont Typar geotextile fabric.
These gravel pavers have the strength to hold the gravel fill in place yet are porous to allow for the filtration of stormwater runoff, reducing the demands on the landscape drainage system. The NDS Gravel Pavers are available in tan, black, brick red, and gray to provide design flexibility when choosing gravel color and application.

Recommended Applications
- Residential driveways
- Golf cart paths
- Service roads
- Jogging tracks and bike paths
- Truck & cart wash-down areas, maintenance, and equipment yards
- RV & boat access and parking
- Overflow parking lots
- Roadway shoulders
- Emergency vehicle access roads and fire lanes
- Construction entrance soil stabilization
NDS EZ Roll Gravel Pavers are also an effective solution for erosion control on slopes and in swales.
Benefits
- Permeable surfaces mean stormwater runoff is eliminated or reduced
- Stormwater filters naturally through the subsurface, reducing pollutants
- Water is conserved as gravel does not require irrigation for maintenance
- Less expensive to maintain over time than traditional hardscaping, with a much more aesthetically pleasing result
Installation
- Prepare and compact the base.
- Roll the pavers out with the fabric side down.
- Stake the rolls. Each roll comes with 40 galvanized 12 in. stakes.
- Fill the cells with gravel.
NDS recommends a compacted AASHTO #57 stone base sized to the traffic:
| Traffic | Minimum #57 stone base | Maximum grade |
|---|---|---|
| Foot traffic only | No base required | 3% |
| Golf carts and light loads | 4 in. | Not specified |
| Cars and pickup trucks | 6 in. | 10% |
| Fire trucks and H-20 loads | 8 in. | 6% |

Which Gravel to Use
NDS recommends filling the cells with clean, crushed, semi-angular, uniformly graded 3/8-inch gravel (AASHTO #6 or similar). Fill to the top of the cells so the gravel carries the load together with the grid.
Why the Bonded Fabric Matters
The bottom of every EZ Roll gravel paver is thermally bonded to DuPont Typar SF32, a nonwoven polypropylene geotextile (110 lb grab tensile strength, 30 lb puncture resistance). The fabric holds the fill gravel in the cells and off the base stone, while water drains straight through.
Available Colors
EZ Roll gravel pavers come in black, gray, tan and brick red. Pick the color closest to your gravel so the grid disappears once it's filled: gray for most crushed limestone and granite, tan for buff and brown stone, brick red for red rock, and black for dark stone. Black rolls are made from 100% recycled material.
EZ Roll Gravel Paver Price & Cost
A 4' x 150' gravel paver roll covers about 577 sq ft. Gray is $2,380 (about $4.12 per sq ft) and the other colors are $2,475 (about $4.29 per sq ft). Every roll ships free and includes 40 stakes. Your project cost also includes the base stone and fill gravel, which vary by region.
Other Sizes & Alternatives
Want grass instead of gravel?
EZ Roll grass pavers come in 4' x 150' rolls (601.6 sq ft) and 4' x 24' rolls (95 sq ft) for driveways and parking areas you want to keep green.
Small or irregular areas?
Tufftrack 2' x 2' panels can be filled with grass or gravel and fit tight spaces.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many square feet does one gravel paver roll cover?
One roll is 3.87 ft x 149 ft and covers 577 sq ft.
Can you plow snow on EZ Roll gravel pavers?
Yes. NDS states they may be plowed to remove snow.
Why is there fabric on the bottom?
The thermally welded geotextile keeps gravel from migrating down and lifting the paver, and lets stormwater filter through.
Are EZ Roll gravel pavers wheelchair accessible?
In a 2010 independent test to ASTM F1951 (surface accessibility), a filled EZ Roll gravel paver surface met the standard's wheelchair performance requirements. See the NDS compliance report (PDF).
How do you install gravel pavers?
Prepare the base, roll the pavers out fabric side down, stake them, and fill the cells with gravel.
