GEOSYNTHETICS

Geosynthetic products play an integral role in the majority of building and civil engineering projects.

The range of applications and uses is vast, including ground stabilisation,
reinforcement, erosion control,drainage, environmental protection, grass protection and weed suppression.

The range covers non-woven geotextiles with products including, or directly equivalent to, the vast majority
of industry standards and woven from lightweight up to some of the heaviest available.  Complementing the
geotextile range we also offer Geogrids, providing engineers with cost effective solutions for sub-base reinforcement and soil stabilisation.


SEPARATION
The use of a geotextile to prevent the intermixing of dissimilar soil layers.


FILTRATION
The use of a geotextile to allow the passage of fluids (most commonly water) while preventing the uncontrolled passage of soil particles.


REINFORCEMENT
The use of the tensile properties of a geosynthetic material to resist stresses or contain deformations in soil structures.


DRAINAGE
The use of a geosynthetic layer to collect and transport fluids within its thickness.


PROTECTION
The use of a geosynthetic material as a stress reduction layer to prevent or reduce damage to an adjacent surface or layer.


EROSION CONTROL
The use of a geosynthetic material to prevent the loss of soil particles from water erosion.
