Traditional geogrids and geocomposites for base reinforcement

LBO geogrids are specifically designed for soil base reinforcement; they are made of polypropylene (PP) using an exclusive extrusion system and subsequent bi-axial stretching to increase their tensile characteristics and ensure excellent resistance to damage during installation.

GT geocomposites are produced by industrially laminating an LBO geogrid with a geotextile: the geogrid provides resistance to the soil, while the geotextile acts as a separator and filter.

GT geocomposites are used when there is a need to separate and reinforce two soils with different grain sizes, thus preventing contamination between them.

High Modulus geogrids and geocomposites are available in different strengths so that they can be used on both small and large construction sites.
