New Memorials Direct Announces New

Personalized Charm Bangle

Los Angeles National Cemetery uses

EZRoll Grass Paver

LOS ANGELES, CA—

Spanning over 114 green

acres, the

Los Ange-

les National Cemetery

is home to more than

80,000 identical head-

stones of interred war vet-

erans. Dedicated in 1889

and managed by the De-

partment of Veteran Af-

fairs (VA), the cemetery

serves as the final resting

place of war veterans from

the Civil War, the Span-

ish-American War, World

War I & II, the Kore-

an War and several other

American conflicts.

After withstanding the

weight of 80,000 head-

stones and landscape

equipment for several

decades, the soil of the

cemetery had gradually

settled, causing the head-

stones to destabilize and

sink at varied angles. In

an attempt to restore the

symmetry of the cem-

etery while remaining

sensitive to its residents,

Dial Engineering

de-

sired the use of a product

that was effective, mini-

mally invasive and blend-

ed naturally into the en-

vironment.

Dial Engineering found

its solution with

NDS,

Inc

.’s

EZRoll Grass Pav-

. Upon the first instal-

lation, Dial Engineering

was pleased with the out-

come and decided to com-

plete the project using the

NDS product. The EZ

Roll Grass Paver was cho-

sen because it was found

to be significantly stur-

dier, easier to install and

made from a higher qual-

ity construction material

compared to the competi-

tion.

Made from 100 percent

recycled plastic, the EZ

Roll Grass Paver is a sus-

tainable landscape stabili-

zation product that works

by protecting the root

zone to prevent soil com-

paction. The tool is de-

signed to withstand heavy

vehicular traffic and goes

beyond the needs of cem-

eteries dealing with the

effects of ground desta-

bilization. With a com-

prehensive strength of

57,890 psf, the NDS

EZRoll Grass Paver is as

strong as concrete and re-

quires up to 50 percent

less maintenance than al-

ternative solutions.

NDS EZRoll Grass Pav-

ers allow healthy grass to

thrive in areas that would

traditionally have impervi-

ous hardscaping installed.

There are a variety of ap-

plications for the NDS

EZRoll: Golf cart paths,

service roads, jogging

tracks, bike paths, resi-

dential driveways, park-

ing lots, overflow parking

lots, roadways shoulders,

emergency vehicle access

roads, truck maintenance

and equipment yards,

construction entrance soil

stabilization and cemetery

headstone stabilization. In

addition to these load ap-

plications, they are also an

effective solution for ero-

sion control on slopes and

in swales. NDS EZRoll

grass pavers are less expen-

sive to maintain over time

than traditional hardscap-

ing and are more aestheti-

cally pleasing. Learn more
