Geogrid Ultranit

Geogrid Ultranit (Ultranit) is made by weaving from high-modulus polyester with a flat mesh structure. The Ultranit geogrid is available in uniaxial or biaxial and is used as a reinforcing element. Through the use of Ultranit geogrids, it is possible to significantly increase the bearing capacity of fragile road foundations or various structures. The use of Ultranit geogrid allows to reduce the time of compaction of granular material and consolidation of structures.

Scope of application

Geotextile woven trademark Ultranit includes all climatic zones with maritime (M), temperate (U) and cold (UHL) climates in accordance with GOST 15150.

Operating temperature range from minus 60°C to plus 60°C, hiding category in soil 5 under the action of groundwater with a possible pH of 2.0÷9.5 according to GOST 16350

  • Strengthening of weak foundations of road structures, parking lots, oil terminals;
  • During the construction of roads - the separation of the structural layers of the road surface;
  • Construction of temporary roads (in various elements and climatic conditions);
  • Use as a geocomposite with non-woven geomaterials;
  • Arrangement of sites subject to high load - port facilities, warehouses, parking lots for heavy vehicles, terminals for containers, etc.;
  • Construction of reinforced ground structures;
  • Construction of retaining structures;
  • Protection of existing and various structures from subsidence of soil and its deformation.

Geogrid Ultranit, advantages:
  • Prevents merging with the call for the construction of structural layers;
  • Creates the effect of structural filler jamming in the lattice cells, due to the fact that it does not have horizontal deposits;
  • The design of the structure withstands heavy loads with small deformations;
  • Reduces the abrasion of crushed stone due to its aggregate mobility;
  • It preserves the drainage feature of the layer, the probability of the appearance of crushed stone in the sand layer.
  • Physical and mechanical properties of the material
