Reinforcement

Geogrids

Reduce your construction costs and time while achieving significant carbon savings with Wrekin biaxial and uniaxial geogrids.

Geogrids provide ground reinforcement, preventing soils from pulling apart under tension by allowing the force to be transferred to a larger area. They are ideally suited for use on haul roads, permanent roads, piling platforms, compounds, slopes and much more.

Hinkley Point C Nuclear Power Station haul road

Working with J. Murphy & Sons and Balfour Beatty we helped with the construction of a ten-kilometre haul road to support the first UK nuclear power station to be built in over 20 years. When complete, Hinkley Point C in Somerset will provide low carbon electricity for around six million homes across the South West.

Bristol Airport, Silverzone Car Park

With both an increase in passenger numbers and volume of flights there was a need for the operators of Bristol Airport to undertake a range of improvements across the airport complex to cope with the growing demand. Wrekin were able to provide the necessary technical advice and provide a cost effective alternative in place of the originally specified composite geogrid product.
