Geocell

A Geocell is a 3D honeycomb-like structure made from high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or polymer strips that are ultrasonically welded together. When expanded and filled with soil, gravel, or sand, it forms a stable layer used to reinforce, confine, and protect soil on slopes, roads, and embankments.

Cellular Confinement System for Soil Stabilization

  • Soil stabilization on weak subgrades

  • Erosion control on slopes, channels, and embankments

  • Load support for roads, pavements, and parking areas

  • Slope and channel protection

  • Retaining wall construction using geocell facing

✅ What Are Geocells Used For?

✅ How Do Geocells Work?

  1. Geocell panels are expanded on-site to form a honeycomb grid.

  2. The cells are anchored and filled with locally available fill (soil, gravel, concrete).

  3. The confined material resists lateral movement and distributes loads evenly.

  4. This reduces pressure on the subgrade and prevents erosion or settlement.

Technical Specification

  • High strength and durability – made from HDPE or polymer alloy

  • Lightweight and compact – easy to transport and install

  • Excellent load distribution – improves soil bearing capacity

  • UV and chemical resistant – for long-term outdoor use

  • Cost-effective – reduces need for expensive fill or deep excavation

  • Environmentally friendly – allows use of local infill materials

✅ Key Features & Benefits

✅ Applications

  • Road base reinforcement (temporary and permanent)

  • Railway subgrade stabilization

  • Embankment and slope protection

  • Channel lining for water flow control

  • Retaining wall support systems

  • Military and emergency access roads

  • Faster installation compared to concrete or stone structures

  • Reduces earthwork and material transport

  • Improves structural stability in soft soil areas

  • Adapts to terrain contours with minimal disturbance

  • Suitable for both permanent and temporary structures

✅ Advantages Over Traditional Methods

✅ Installation Overview

  • Prepare the surface and base layer.

  • Expand and anchor the geocell panels.

  • Fill the cells with appropriate material.

  • Compact the fill and cap the top surface if required.

  • Geocell remains in place, confining the fill and reinforcing the structure.
