GEOCELLS
Geocells
L.E. Geosolutions’ geocell products comprise lightweight, flexible, three-dimensional, expandable panels manufactured from High Density Polyethylene (HDPE). Individual strips are ultrasonically bonded together to form an extremely strong cellular configuration. When infilled with soil, a Cellular Confinement System (CCS) is created to enhanced the mechanical and geotechnical properties of the soil.
Applications
L.E. Geosolutions’ geocell products are suitable for use in the following applications:
- Base stabilization
- Slope erosion control
- Channel protection
- Retaining wall facings
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.
