1. Product Overview
Steel-plastic biaxial geogrid is a composite geosynthetic material made by combining high-tensile steel wires with polyethylene or polypropylene, forming a robust grid structure. This geogrid offers superior tensile strength in both longitudinal and transverse directions, making it an ideal solution for soil stabilization, load distribution, and erosion control. Its unique steel-plastic composition ensures durability and performance in heavy-load applications, including road construction, retaining walls, and slope reinforcement.
2. Product Features
- Dual-Directional Reinforcement: Provides high tensile strength in both directions for enhanced load distribution.
- Steel-Plastic Composition: Combines steel's strength and plastic's flexibility for superior performance.
- Durability: Resistant to chemicals, UV exposure, and environmental stresses for long-lasting use.
- Eco-Friendly Material: Manufactured using recyclable and non-toxic materials.
- Cost-Effective: Reduces construction costs by improving soil load capacity and minimizing material usage.

5. Installation Guidelines
- Surface Preparation: Clean, level, and compact the foundation soil for a stable base.
- Placement: Roll out the steel-plastic biaxial geogrid on the prepared surface, aligning it as per the design.
- Anchoring: Fix the geogrid using stakes or weights to maintain position during installation.
- Overlapping: Ensure an overlap of 20cm to 30cm between adjacent sections for continuous reinforcement.
- Backfilling: Spread and compact soil or aggregate layers evenly over the geogrid.
- Inspection: Check for alignment and tension to avoid wrinkles or gaps before covering with additional layers.
