Product catalog summary

Introduction
Tensar International Limited presents the Tensar TriAx TX190L geogrid, a solution for stabilizing railway trackbeds by reducing ballast deformation and settlement. This technology aims to revolutionize railway maintenance by extending maintenance cycles and reducing life cycle costs.

Specifications and Benefits

Significantly delays sleeper settlement.
Extends maintenance cycles by approximately three times or more.
Reduces life cycle costs in terms of both cash and carbon emissions.
Allows the use of recycled ballast, promoting sustainability.

Application and Proven Results
The Tensar TriAx TX190L geogrid has been successfully implemented in various projects, including a railway corridor reconstruction in Bratislava, Slovakia, in 2012. The geogrid's larger aperture is designed to match coarse granular fill, enhancing its effectiveness in stabilizing ballast layers over low-strength foundation soils.

Conclusion
With over 30 years of research and trials, Tensar geogrids have proven to be a reliable and cost-effective method for improving trackbed stiffness. The Tensar TriAx TX190L offers a significant advancement in geogrid technology, providing a practical solution for railway infrastructure challenges.
