Boasting a product history of over 50 years, Stabilenka enjoys the distinction of being one of the world’s first ever reinforcement geotextiles. Due to the raw material used (PET) and modules of more than 25,000 kN/m, the geotextile product offers high tensile stiffness coupled with a low creep tendency. Our Stabilenka geotextile reduces deformations of the structure under permanently high loads. Stabilenka exhibits an extremely low creep strain of less than 1% when subjected to a permanent load equal to 50% of the short-term strength after the construction phase. The use of Stabilenka on subgrades with low bearing capacity thus eliminates the need for soil replacement, conventional soil stabilisation measures and long consolidation times that delay the progress of the works. In addition to standard stock products, we are also happy to assist with tailored solutions for you.
