ParaGrid geogrids are planar structures consisting of a biaxal array of composite geosynthetic strips.

The strips comprise of a core of high modulus, low creep polyester yarn tendons encased in a tough, durable polythene sheath.
ParaGrid has good bidirectional strengths and is available in strength from 30kN/m to 200 kN/m in the main direction (longitudinal) and from 5 to 100 kN/m in the secondary direction.

ParaGrid is suitable for structural applications where a long term design life (50-120 years typically depending on the different existing regulations) is required.
ParaGrid is BBA Roads and Bridges certified, for more details or to request a copy of the documents, please contact us. 

Typical ParaGrid applications include:

Reinforcement of the fill of steep slopes:
ParaGrid steep slopes can be built using different types of facings according to the Contractor's preference.

Reinforcement of the fill in segmental block walls:
ParaGrid can be used in combination with any type of block.

Reinforcement of low embankments on soft soils to limit and manage differential settlements.

Reinforcement in soil veneer applications:
ParaGrid is typically used as a reinforcement to stabilise soil layers on sliding sloped surfaces (e.g. Landfill cappings are the most typical application)
