Geosynthetic Knitted Grid and Mesh Structures
topic
Geosynthetic knitted grids and meshes are produced on coarse gauge warp knitting machines using high-tenacity polyester and polypropylene yarns with inlay yarn insertion at defined grid spacing to create soil reinforcement and slope stabilisation products, with knitted construction binding inlay reinforcement yarns while providing soil interaction texture on both fabric faces for friction mobilisation in geotechnical reinforcement applications.
Role
Produces geosynthetic reinforcement products that combine the production efficiency of warp knitting with the high-strength inlay yarn capability that provides tensile reinforcement for soil retaining walls, road base reinforcement, and slope stabilisation applications, with knitted grid geosynthetics offering installation flexibility and durability advantages over welded or extruded geogrids in certain geotechnical reinforcement applications.
