WHAT ARE GEOCELLS?
Also known as cellular confinement, they are three-dimensional synthetic structures in a honeycomb shape, made of high-density polyethylene (or other polymers or combinations thereof) fused into diamond-shaped cells. Once the panels are expanded to their maximum extension and filled with soil or gravel, they provide effective confinement for unconsolidated soils, preventing their movement even on steep slopes or in erosion-prone areas.
Also, under certain characteristics, the geocell is used to reinforce the soil alone or in combination with other geosynthetics such as geotextiles and geogrids.
Physical characteristics
- Three-dimensional panels with rhomboidal openings, the panel expands to adapt in the best way to cover the required area.
- Thickness: 3", 4", 6", and 8"
- Surface: smooth, textured, perforated.
- Colors: black, green, beige

We supply and install a wide range of geosynthetics. Each material is precisely selected and installed to meet strict environmental regulations, offering long term protection.
ADVANTAGES OF GEOCELLS
- Protection against landslides and erosion on slopes.
- Revegetation of slopes and channels.
- Increases soil bearing capacity through confinement and load distribution.
- Lower maintenance of communication routes (roads, paths, highways, railways).
- Practically no waste is generated during installation.
