SYNOPSIS
The sustainability approach in local construction markets has currently inflated its demand. Geosynthetic material is a perfect fit for a growing sustainable construction. Particularly, using geosynthetic material in building a retaining wall embankment, able to utilize available in-situ materials, therefore reducing usage of imported resources such as rock fills and metals. We promote unique ways of treating exposed fill or cut slopes sections, inclusive of soils and rocky slopes, instead of traditionally used conventional methods. Along with the growing needs of sustainable construction, we are focusing on solutions which provide savings in project time and costs, such as using geogrid as road base stabilization method to reduce aggregates used and pro-long the road’s serviceability periods. We also use high-performance materials and expert application knowledge in solving natural hazards mitigation such as rock fall and debris flow events which may cause substantial damage to the infrastructure, so your projects can benefit from cost-effective and environmentally friendly solutions.
