GeoCHEM. Inc. is your
one-stop source for American Manufactured Unilateral and Biaxial
GEOGRIDS & High Strength Polyester Fabrics that are truly
tough-enough & strong-enough to get the job done
for our core customer base in the construction, mining &
military industries. .
GEOGRIDS
have been used to reinforce soil structures for the Department of Transportation,
United States Army
Corps of Engineers, United States Forest Service & Federal
Highway Administration along with several
high profile private sector projects. GEOGRIDS
are geosynthetics formed by a regular network of
integrally connected elements with apertures greater than 1/4" to allow
interlocking with surrounding soil, rock, earth and other surrounding materials
to function primarily as reinforcement.
GeoCHEM, Inc. can efficiently
modify products, per changing consumer needs. Case in point, GeoCHEM
can make 17’ GEOGRIDS and FABRIC widths while our
competitors only offer 12’ widths. Customized products are also
available so GeoCHEM customers can get exactly what they need — at the
lowest available cost (minimal production runs may
apply)
GEOGRID APPLICATIONS
- Retaining Walls
- Steepened Slopes
- Embankment Over Soft Soils
- Veneer Stability in Landfills
- Void Bridging
- Pavement Reinforcement
|
FUNCTIONS
- GEOGRIDS stabilize
soil mass.
- Creates a composite soil mass of increased strength
- GEOGRID is to
soil what reinforcing steel is to concrete
- Much higher loads can be carried by the soil structure
|
TECHNOLOGY
- Improved Connection Strength
- Significant technical advantage due to its high connection strength
- Improved Coating
- Flexible Product Widths
- Custom Product Lengths

GEO TRAILGRID
SOIL REINFORCEMENT GEOGRID
GEO Trailgrid is composed of high molecular weight,
high tenacity multifilament polyester yarns that are woven into a stable
network placed under tension. The high strength polyester yarns are
coated with a PVC material. GEO SERIES GEOGRIDS are inert to biological
degradation and are resistant to naturally encountered chemicals, alkalis
and acids. GEO SERIES GEOGRIDS are typically used for soil
reinforcement applications such as retaining walls, steepened slopes,
embankments, sub-grade stabilization, and embankments over soft soils and
waste containment applications. |
