In the West, the use of geocells.

About the high quality of the roads in the West talk a lot, and doubt this fact, no one is: build roads efficiently, and they are without maintenance for long enough. But what is the secret of asphalt in Western countries? It turns out that it’s all in the installation techniques.

A method of laying roads, known as “geocells”, appeared in the West after the 1991 “operation desert Storm”. This developed method was by order of the American military and was originally used for the passage of armored vehicles on the sand.

For the first time for peaceful purposes, this method used an American company Presto Products Company, which received two international patents for soil stabilisation system and method of welding plastic strips of geogrids Geoweb.

But that moment has passed already more than 15 years, and according to us law innovation has become the property of the state. The main advantage of these technologies, the tensile strength and tear strength, durability and ability to resist aggressive external factors – fluctuations of temperatures, moisture, chemicals, fungus, mildew and sun rays.

Using the construction of roads geogeek contributes to the quality of soil reinforcement and a substantial increase in the turnaround time of operation of construction objects. Besides this, geocells increase road safety and effectively resist erosion, erosion and weathering of the upper soil layer.
