The PolGrid Geogrids Advantages The Pietrucha Group is the manufacturer of the PolGrid geogrids, specialized geosynthetics widely used Geogrids are used in transport construction projects and other geothechnical works. PolGrid products in the civil engineering projects to stabilize and reinforce land or to separate the substrate layers with are quick and easy to install and allow for the reduction of the use of materials, thus saving investment varying graining. Immediate stabilization and separation The semi-stiff composite aggregate scheme allows for the reinforcement of aggregate, even on...

The PolGrid Geogrids How they work Blocking and horizontal fixing of aggregate Thanks to the rigid construction based on non-movable nods, which immediately responds to pressure, the PolGrid geogrids prevent aggregate shifts. Used to reinforce the road structure, geogrids prevent horizontal displacement and penetration (propagation) of aggregate grains into the weak substrate and the loss of stability of the foundation layer. Immediate stabilization and reinforcement of road structure The semi-stiff composite aggregate scheme allows for the reinforcement of aggregate, even on extremely low load-bearing...

The PolGrid Geogrids Technology The PolGrid Geogrids Application Tar roads The key feature of the PolGrid products is their rigid construction with stiff and integrated nods. The structure has no interconnecting junctions and the strength of the geogrid node is equal to the strength of the rib. PolGrid is manufactured on an automated 130 meter long technological line and it involves extruding a thermoplastic polypropylene plate, then perforating the calibrated plate and finally stretching the material in both directions. Reinforcement of aggregate substrate layers, reinforcement of embankments...

Góra Śląska, Poland Forest inspectorate Góra Śląska forestry Siciny Geocomposites combine the advantages of a geogrids and non-woven geofabric for even higher reinforcement, filtration and separation. Geocomposites are used on boggy substructures or together with materials of unfavorable grain size. The type of the non-woven geofabric may be individually selected to meet the requirements of a given project.

The PolGrid geogrids Frequently asked questions What is a geosynthetic? The ISO 10318 norm defines the geosynthetic as a product of which at least one component is produced from polymer (polyester, polypropylene, polyethylene or nylon), has the form of a sheet, strip or spatial form, and is used in contact with the soil (or other material) in geotechnical and civil engineering projects. Geosynthetics belong to a large family of materials with a very wide range of applications, used primarily for reinforcement, stabilization, draining, filtration, separation and preventing erosion.
