| TerraCell® Cellular Confinement System |
|
 TerraCell is an innovative geosynthetic
product providing solutions for difficult stabilization, erosion
control and retaining structure problems. TerraCell, generically
referred to as a "geocell," confines native or select
fill materials and is the integral component of a cellular
confinement system.
TerraCell is a lightweight,
flexible mat made of polyethylene strips. These strips are ultrasonically
bonded together to form an extremely strong, honeycomb configuration.
A variety of fill materials can be placed within the TerraCell
system: soil, sand, aggregate, concrete, etc. The use of TerraCell
and the appropriate fill material create numerous opportunities
for versatile and economical solutions for many applications
including:
|
- GROUND
STABILIZATION
- SLOPE
EROSION CONTROL
- RETAINING
WALLS
|
- STREAM CROSSING
- CHANNEL EROSION CONTROL
- EMBANKMENTS
|
|
 To meet the project requirements,
TerraCell is available in various heights and two different cell
sizes: standard and "large cell." It can be perforated
to allow water flow between cells and also to incorporate a tendon
system for severe conditions.
TerraCell can be manufactured into custom sizes for specific
requirements
