PARAWEB™M
GEOSYNTHETICS REINFORCEMENT STRIP
ParaWebTM M range is manufactured from high tenacity, mutifilament polyester yarns aligned and co-extruded with polyethylene
(LLDPE) to form polymeric strips. ParaWebTM strips are planar structures consisting of a core of high tenacity polyester yarn tendons
encased in a polyethylene (LLDPE) sheath; it enables ParaWebTM M range to be used as reinforcement of contaminated or high
aggressive materials for use in environmental applications. The strips are suitable for reinforcement applications in combination with
concrete wall facing panels. The ParaWebTM M range has been tested internally and independently (NTPEP) in accordance to
published standards and will conform to the property values listed below.

1. Minimum average roll values (MARV) are calculated as typical minus two standard deviations. Statistically, it yields a 97.7% degree of confidence that any samples
taken from quality assurance testing will exceed the value reported;
2. LTDS calculated for a standard temperature of 20°C, 4<ph<9 in coarse gravel soil; on request more data available;
3. As above but for 9<ph<11; product for lime-soil mix applications and aggressive environments.
4. Width, thickness and weight values per roll are nominal a tolerance of 5% on the reported value is admitted.
