Cellular confinement--or geocells--provide flexibility, strength and durability and offer the designer a versatile tool to accomplish an affordable and functional solution.

 

In 1990, as our troops engaged in Desert Storm, a unique technology, cellular confinement, was developed to stabilize the shifting sands of the Arabian peninsula.  That technology was brought back to the U.S. and has been applied to a wide variety of soil stabilization problems.

 

Today, cellular confinement systems (also know as geocells) have found a growing market in slope stabilization, porous paving and retaining walls.  Its flexibility, strength and durability offer the designer a versatile tool to accomplish an affordable and functional solution.

 

Presto Geoweb system is a lightweight, expandable confinement system that creates an economical, eco-friendly foundation or erosion barrier for load support, slope erosion control, earth retention, or channel wall protection.
