Uniaxial Geogrids

Uniaxial geogrids are a type of geosynthetic material used in soil reinforcement and soil stabilization applications. They are made of high-strength polymers and are used to reinforce soil in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the geogrid.

Uniaxial geogrids are typically used to reinforce soil in earth retention systems, such as retaining walls and slope stabilization systems. Uniaxial geogrids are known for their high tensile strength and ability to distribute loads evenly across a wide area. They are also resistant to UV light and other environmental factors, which makes them durable and long-lasting.

Biaxial Geogrids

Biaxial geogrids differ from uniaxial geogrids in terms of the direction of reinforcement they provide. Uniaxial geogrids are designed to reinforce soil in a single direction, while biaxial geogrids are designed to reinforce soil in two directions.

Biaxial geogrids can be used to reinforce the base of roads, parking lots, and other paved surfaces to improve their load-bearing capacity and reduce rutting and deformation. Overall, biaxial geogrids are used in a wide range of applications where soil reinforcement and soil stabilization are needed. They are particularly useful in high-stress environments where the soil is subjected to significant loads or movement.

Geocell

Geocells, also known as cellular confinement systems, are a type of geosynthetic material used in soil reinforcement and soil stabilization applications. They are made of a flexible, honeycomb-like material that is used to create a three-dimensional structure when filled with soil or other materials.

Geocells are typically used to reinforce soil in a variety of applications, including, earth retention systems, slope stabilization, road and paving reinforcement, and erosion control. Overall, geocells are an effective and efficient solution for reinforcing and stabilizing soil in a variety of applications.​

Geo-reinforcement

In addition to drainage, filtration and separation applications, geosynthetics perform a key function of providing geotechnical reinforcement. Unlike geotextiles, which also serve as geotechnical reinforcement, geo-reinforcement products such as geogrids, are manufactured exclusively for earth-reinforcement purposes.

 

Geogrid manufacturing is often complemented with robust testing and quality-control programs, in the context of their reinforcement and strength properties. Geogrids are used in applications where achievement of requisite geotechnical strength is a crucial concern, namely in applications such as MSE walls & slopes, road & pavements, earth embankments, and subgrade stabilisation & settlement applications. At Penteco, we offer a diverse stock of geogrids, corresponding to the applications listed above.
