The Enka Solutions 3D matrices are manufactured from polymer monofilaments in different weights and thicknesses and shaped to different profiles, to meet requirements for strength, flexibility, flow rates, compressibility, or other specifications. They can be compounded to achieve a.o. flame retardancy, UV-stability, or color.
Properties
- Polymers: polypropylene, polyester, and polyamide with additives to requirements
- Pyramid, waffle, U- and V-shaped profiles
- Thicknesses up to 22 mm featuring an openness of up to 95%
Enka Solutions 3D matrices can be combined with nonwoven and woven technical textiles, adding functionalities. These textiles are attached to one or both faces of the mat through thermal bonding, spot-welding, gluing, or stitching.
Integral combinations
- Grid incorporation
- Pre-filling with bound stone chippings
To create a full range of solutions to challenges in the geotechnical market, proprietary technologies were developed to manufacture geogrids and prefabricated vertical drains (PVD’s).
Properties
- Geogrids: extruded polymeric straps, laser-bonded and optionally glued to a nonwoven fabric, or aramid grids embedded in proprietary nonwovens. Composite geogrids now available, discover the EnkaGrid MAX C composite geogrids.
- Prefabricated vertical drains (PVD’s): uniquely shaped core from recycled plastics, thermally bonded to nonwovens on both faces.
