Uniaxial Geogrids - L.E. Geosolutions, LLC

Uniaxial (UX) Geogrids

L.E. Geosolutions’ uniaxial geogrids are high performance soil reinforcement products, used predominantly in a range of grade separation applications. They are manufactured using polyester yarns with a high molecular weight and high tensile strength. The yarns are knitted into a grid-like structure which provides tensile reinforcement strength to the surrounding soil. The geogrids are coated with a black saturation coating to provide further chemical and mechanical benefits that ensure durability in any natural environment.

Applications

L.E. Geosolutions’ uniaxial geogrids are suitable for use in the following applications:

Reinforced steep slopes
Retaining walls
Landfill systems including veneer stability
Embankments constructed over soft soils

Specifications

L.E. Geosolutions’ products are manufactured using the highest quality standards possible. Our vendors are fully accredited with local and international bodies and a full QA/QC document can be provided upon request. In addition, Mill Certificates can be provided for products sold on specific projects.
