Soil reinforcement with Geogrids
Performance proven over 20 years

Single or multiple layers of EnkaGrid geogrids absorb forces originating from road and rail traffic, both longitudinally and in a transverse direction. This inhibits deformation and the development of rutting in the surface. As such, both geogrids help significantly increase the service life of the finished structure while minimizing required maintenance. Additionally, especially during the construction of roads, EnkaGrid geogrids often provide substantial cost savings. This is because they allow a reduction of the thickness of the unbound base course.

EnkaGrid MAX & EnkaGrid MAX C geogrids exhibit optimal interaction with most granular soil types. It can be used in every natural aggregate as well as with recycled material. The interaction between the geogrid and granular material minimizes particle movement. This interlocking effect prevents lateral spreading of the base material and delivers tensile stiffness to the subbase. EnkaGrid MAX provides excellent durability and resistance to installation damage. EnkaGrid MAX C combines the additional functions of separating and filtering the soil & other granular materials adding to the quality of the construction.

When no creep deformation is allowable in reinforcement or stabilization layers, EnkaGrid TRC geogrid is the right solution. Suitable for use on weak soil, EnkaGrid TRC delivers reinforcement, separation and filtration in one easy-to-install product. The high stiffness of the geogrid composite reinforces the base course beneath roads over weak subsoils. At the same time the nonwoven prevents fine particles from migrating up into the sub-base, thus enabling in-plane water flow during compaction of the sub-base.
