Biogeocomposites

Geogrids

The Pietrucha Group is the manufacturer of the PolGrid geogrids, specialized geosynthetics widely used in the civil engineering projects to stabilize and reinforce land or to separate the substrate layers with varying graining. The solid, integral structure of PolGrid products and four-sided openings function considerably better with  aggregate than flat profile grids or geogrids with rounded openings. Geogrids are used  in transport construction projects and other geothechnical works. PolGrid products are quick and easy to install and allow for the reduction of the use of materials, thus saving investment costs and saving time.

The PolGrid Bio biogeocomposites

The PolGrid Bio biogeocomposite is a combination of a geogrid with stiff nodes and a biotextile with grass seeds. It is practical and convenient method of turfing, greening, but also for securing slopes near roads and highways, railway embankments, flood embankments and industrial areas. It allows you to quickly cover and protect the soil surface of the slope, protecting it against erosion and near-surface landslides.

Intended use

  • Roads and highways - for securing inclined areas and greening all adjacent areas.
  • Slopes - to protect against erosion, landslides, leaching and blowing.
  • Railway embankments - to protect against erosion, landslides, leaching and blowing.
  • Flood embankments - to protect against landslides, leaching and blowing.
  • Dunes - to protect against erosion, landslides, leaching and blowing.
  • Sports grounds - for creating boards and covering of sports grounds.
  • Recreational parks – for creating all green areas to improve the creation process.

Product advantages

  • Provides even growth, this is particularly important on sloping areas
  • It gives the possibility of using additional moisture storage media
  • Deters moles
  • Safe for the environment
  • Possibility of long-term storage
  • Protection of stabilised surfaces against water erosion

Technical parametres

PolGrid Bio is a good solution for soil strengthening and reinforcement. Depending on the project requirements, the appropriate type of the geogrid reinforcing the biogeocomposite is selected.

Technical parametres of the geogrid:

Biotextiles are geotextiles made of cotton and cotton-like waste with carefully selected grass seeds inside the non-woven fabric.
