Soil Reinforcement

Whenever the characteristics of the local material alone cannot deliver the required stability, the installation of geosynthetic layers is an effective way to create the environment needed for steep slopes, walls, embankments and similar structures, thereby offering a solution, which is both ecologically sound and cost-effective.

By analyzing the applied loads and soil characteristics, a stable equilibrium of forces can be calculated. This equilibrium can be achieved by using geogrid reinforcements to absorb the excess forces.

Colbond's Enkagrid PRO is an extremely versatile and reliable geogrid for soil reinforcement. For creative surface finishes, Enkagrid PRO can be used together with different systems or external shuttering. A wide range of Enkagrid PRO geogrids allows to design with product types optimally fulfilling the specific project requirements.

For more information on Enkagrid geogrids and their applications, please follow the link to the section Enkagrid, Uses.
