Our activities in road construction and infrastructure.

The use of geotextiles as separation in road foundations is as old as the road to Rome.

Applying a separating and pressure-distributing geotextile extends the lifespan of the structure and also reduces the layer thickness of the ballast layer to be used.

Geopex has a suitable product in its range for all possible application.

Separation and stress distribution

Separation is the process of preventing two different materials in the foundation from mixing, which will reduce the load-bearing capacity of the structure, such as a road. To prevent this unwanted mixing of the valuable foundation materials and the subsurface, a geotextile is usually used. As a result, the foundation layer will continue to retain its properties, which improves the capacity and lifespan of the entire construction.

Reinforcing subsoils

If the subsoil is poor, or if heavy loads will occur, reinforcement in the structure will be required in addition to separation. Think for example of crane installation sites, necessary for the construction of wind farms or roads on very soft soil.

You can contact us for this; not only for the right product, but also for good advice or calculations.
