View geosynthetic solutions Geosynthetic ranges FasTrack Our market-leading FasTrack woven geotextiles give outstanding performance. Their high load capacity and tensile strength, coupled with a relatively low elongation, provides a high material resistance to breaking under tension. MultiTrack The MulitTrack ranges consists of nonwoven (NW) and super-nonwoven (SNW) geotextiles. The MultiTrack range has excellent filtration and separation properties, making it ideal for use in a wide variety of construction applications. E'GRID Biaxial E'GRID is our premium range of biaxial geogrids offering a 100 year design life. E'GRID reliably solves pavement problems by providing reinforcement to granular sub-bases, long-lasting performance and significant carbon and cost savings. SX Grid SX Grid is a biaxial geogrid that provides a cost-effective solution to solve pavement problems by providing reinforcement to granular sub-bases including compounds, haul road and piling platforms in areas of weak or variable soils. SX Composite Achieve time savings when acquiring materials and overall quicker installations, thanks to SX Composite, a geogrid that performs as both a geogrid and a geotextile in one easy-to-install solution. Geosynthetic Clay Liners (GCL) Geosynthetic Clay Liners are mechanically bonded, comprising of pulverised bentonite embedded between two layers of geotextile. Additional bentonite is added to the overlap edges for ease of sealing. GT Membrane 500 GT Membrane 500 is a standard impermeable geomembrane used for standard ‘attenuation tank’ applications in SUDS. HDPE High-density polyethylene impermeable geomembranes (HDPE) are resistant to most chemicals and have a high stress factor resistance. ProtectaWeb ProtectaWeb is an established and proven method of providing slope reinforcement and tree root protection. Simple to install, it can provide significant time and cost savings by reducing infill materials by as much as 50%. CellTrack CellTrack is a panelled system that is permanent and nearly invisible from the surface once filled. The system is available in different panel sizes, including a heavy-duty variant. It is designed to be installed quickly and easily. Trinter Trinter erosion control mesh is a volumetric geomat made from Polypropylene and High-Density Polyethylene and is designed to control erosion. Protection is guaranteed from the moment of installation. TurfMesh A versatile grass support system, which can be installed on already established lawns and park areas. This provides great versatility as a temporary system or left in position to become a permanent and integral reinforcement mesh.
