Prevent Slope Erosion with Geocell

Prevent Slope Erosion with Geocell

A slope is a natural ground surface that stands out because of a difference in height between two points (an incline). Slopes often suffer landslides caused by rainwater runoff, geological structure, weather and external forces such as vehicle vibration or blasting. There are many ways to prevent slope erosion and landslides, and one of them is a geosynthetic material: geocell.

Geocell is a familiar name in construction and many contractors already use it. Geocell is used for soft soil reinforcement, balancing, and increasing the bearing capacity of soil on slopes.

Geocell product details

One example of how geocell works is preventing landslides or erosion on slopes. Geocell is designed to be filled with materials such as gravel, soil, sand or concrete, and its cells keep that infill from escaping or being washed out, making it well suited to retaining soil on slope surfaces.

Geocell is also fairly easy to install, so it does not take much time.
