Erosion control geocell TENWEB

The ground on slopes is often dry and rocky due to lack of organic material. Under these conditions, it is necessary for an adequate depth of soil to be provided to allow for growth of vegetation. Since topsoil has poor mechanical properties, it can easily slide down the slope and get washed away by heavy rainfall before vegetation has become established. TENAX TenWeb geo-cells are honeycomb shaped structures manufactured by continuous extrusion of polyethylene without any welding. The structure expands and therefore, can be stored and transported with minimal space. When opened to its maximum extension and filled with light compacted soil or fine aggregate, a means of confinement for unconsolidated materials is created within the cells preventing their movement even on steep slopes. If required, the area can then be seeded to achieve a green environment.
