Geogrid supplier

Geogrid supplier

Geogrid supplier

(OP)
I need to find a supplier of geogrid to build reinforced earth retaining walls.  This supplier should provide information on design of walls using their product.

RE: Geogrid supplier

There are so many suppliers out there that you can throw a stone in any direction and hit one.  Where are you and do you have a material preference?  i.e. HDPE or Polyester?

RE: Geogrid supplier

Oh I also forgot to add that you should probably post this in the geotechnical engineers section under earth retention engineering.  I work for a distributor so I don't want to be biased here so I will throw out some manufacturers and you will have to find a local distributor.  Mirafi, Tensar, Maccaferri, Huesker ..... etc.

Thank you for your reply. I am located in Honduras, Central America. I have no preference on the type of material to use. I have no experience with either. The most cost efficient ensar system here in Honduras and apparently, they hold exclusive representation of the system.  If you can provide me with several web pages to investigate, I would appreciate it.

RE: Geogrid supplier

Well if you would like to can look at our website www.geomembranes.com , we are located in Canada, you can also look at the manufacturers websites for Mirafi, Tenax and Huesker all of which we carry, and for Tensar, Maccafferi and Strata which we do not and you will have to find some other distributor.  There are a few more manufacturers but those are the most of the major ones.

RE: Geogrid supplier

honduras, I am an independent consultant who formerly worked for a geogrid mfgr/distributor.  I can design for you; otherwise, simply enter the tradenames of various geogrids into the search function of your favorite web browser and hit enter!  example: Miragrid, Stratagrid, Fortrac
