QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE
The Presto Geoweb® system is the original cellular confinement system developed for creating solutions to challenging soil stabilization problems. Genuine Geoweb has always been manufactured in the USA from high-quality, high-strength polyethylene so quality and performance are always dependable.

GEOWEB® KEY APPLICATIONS
Geoweb Load Support: Economical system solves unacceptable road, parking, and yard surface problems.
  • 3D structure stabilizes infill and controls shearing, lateral, and vertical movement. Allows use of less costly on-site infill materials. Reduces base material requirements and costs by half.
  • Beneficial for load distribution over weak soils, base stabilization for paved surfaces, and surface stabilization for unpaved surfaces.

Geoweb Slope Protection: Creates a stable environment for and long-term sustainability of embankment material.
  • 3D structure reinforces the upper soil layer and resists erosive conditions and sliding forces beyond limits of other systems. Long-term solution for sustainable vegetation, permeable aggregate, hard-armored concrete, or geomembrane protection.
  • Reduces land space requirements and costs by allowing slopes to be designed steeper than when unconfined.

Geoweb Channel Protection: Ensures stability and protection of channels exposed to all types of erosive conditions.
  • Effective with low or high, intermittent or continuous flows. Can be designed to withstand the highest velocities with appropriate infill materials.
  • Research substantiates the effectiveness of the vegetated Geoweb/TRM system for sustaining velocities as high as 30 ft/sec (9m/sec). Vegetation can replace costly rip rap in drainage ditches and stormwater channels.  *CSU Research Results. ■
