How VUBA GrassMac Will Change Your Life
How VUBA GrassMac Will Change Your Life
GrassMac is a cutting-edge, eco-conscious system that delivers a “Reduced Dig” base solution for Artificial Grass installations. Built with three integrated components—Vuba’s Structural Reinforcement Mesh (SRM), VubaMac Resin, and a mix of recycled rubber and aggregate—it’s specifically designed to address issues like subsidence and high maintenance that are common with traditional bases such as sand or grano dust.
Durable, low-maintenance, and fully SUDS-compliant, GrassMac promotes sustainable drainage and is perfectly suited to both residential gardens and commercial landscapes.
One of GrassMac’s standout features is its exceptional drainage. It handles heavy rain and flash flooding with ease and is a top choice for pet owners—reducing odours from pet urine and keeping your lawn fresh. Better still, artificial grass laid over GrassMac can be lifted and fully jet-washed for a deep, thorough clean whenever needed.

How to install GrassMac
GrassMac must be installed by a professional Landscaper who has been fully trained.
Always wear industrial gloves and eye protection and avoid direct contact with uncured binder.
- Dig to an installation depth of 20mm and remove any debris from your subsoil
- Apply a Geo-textile membrane to your subsoil from the farthest edge of the perimeter throughout the project
- Lay 125mm of MOT Type 3 Limestone
- Optional: add a 25mm ‘capping’ layer of 5-10mm angular stone such as 10mm Basalt Chippings
- Add your SRM base layer which will provide a structural skeleton to the system
- Use a lute to spread the GrassMac to 15mm depth
- After the GrassMac has cured for 2-4 hours, it is ready for Artificial Grass to be installed as usual
