Secugrid

is a structurally sound and stable geogrid for soil reinforcement, manufactured of extruded and
drawn bars, laid and welded solid together.
Secugrid is multifunctional
Secugrid geogrids provide tensile reinforcement for base courses in railway and highway
foundation engineering, steep sided soil em bank ments and retaining walls, foundation
reinforcement of earth embankments, load transfer of overlying soil masses, spanning voids
and sink holes, sludge lagoon closures, trench covers and beds. With the available tensile
strengths Secugrid is suitable for the most demanding projects. In addition to our standard
geogrid products, we also manufacture Combigrid - a high strength compo site product
comprising a geogrid and nonwoven geotextile.

Secugrid is safe
Secugrid geogrids are superior soil reinforcement elements because they resist service tensile
force loading with very low elongation. This results in an immediate force connection and
interlocking with the fill soil without primary deformation. The monolithic flat polymer bars used
to make Secugrid are extremely robust and have excellent chemical resistance. Secugrid is
manufactured under the EN ISO 9001 : 2000 regime, ensuring its uniformity and high quality. It
has passed the inspection of numerous recognised materials testing institutes and has been
approved by the Federal Railway Agency for use in earth structures for railway engineering.
Secugrid is economical
Engineering system solutions using Secugrid geogrids can save natural mineral resources by
reducing base course thickness for pavements. For this application a calculation disk can be
requested to determine the right Secugrid type. As Secugrid is easy to handle, large
quantities can be installed quickly with minimal demand on labour resources and lower
installation costs.
Secugrid is simple
Secugrid can be installed during virtually all weather conditions without heavy equipment or

special construction techniques. Panels are joined and continuity is assured with simple
overlaps. Standard cutting tools can be used for on-site trimming, and for steep sided slopes,
various geometrical shapes can be formed where needed to best fit the location.
Conclusion
The Secugrid geogrid products are extremely robust and easily installed, providing an
economical alternative solution to traditional construction methods. The wide range of products,
including both uniaxial and biaxial (R and Q type) geogrids, makes Secugrid an ideal
structural component in practically all fields of civil and environmental engineering. These
high-perfor mance, low cost products provide simple, cost effective soil reinforcement, by
strengthening naturally unstable soil and subsoil to withstand the loading conditions imposed by
modern engineering demands.
