Palm Oil Access Road Reinforcement

Palm Oil Access Road Reinforcement

The main problem frequently faced by palm oil plantations in Indonesia is the palm oil access road. Repeated damage to road infrastructure, especially during the rainy season, reduces production efficiency. Repairing this damage naturally requires very high vehicle maintenance and road infrastructure costs. This has become a cycle that recurs every year.

 

 

Geocell is a three-dimensional geosynthetic product that can reinforce the subgrade of an access road carrying heavy vehicle traffic. With geocell, the amount of fill material can be reduced by up to 40% compared with access road construction without geocell.

Low material costs, easy installation and a significant increase in subgrade reinforcement make this material the best choice for palm oil plantation access roads. This performance has been proven by the minimal maintenance required on palm oil plantation access road projects that use geocell.
