Geosynthetics are high-performance materials manufactured from synthetic polymers, developed to meet critical engineering needs such as soil stabilization, water management, reinforcement, filtration, drainage, and erosion control. They enhance structural performance in infrastructure and construction projects, providing long-lasting and reliable solutions.
Challenges such as weak soils, water impact, load-bearing issues, and erosion directly affect the durability and sustainability of projects. Geosynthetic solutions help control these problems, enabling safer, more efficient, and cost-effective applications.
The use of geosynthetics provides various advantages in projects:
Durable and Long-Lasting: Provides long-term stability thanks to high strength.
Fast Application: Easy and quick to install, reducing construction time and labor costs.
Environmentally Friendly: Supports sustainable solutions and helps conserve natural resources.
Cost Advantage: Reduces construction costs and improves efficiency.

Geogrid
Geogrids are high-strength geosynthetic products used in construction and infrastructure projects. Geogrids are used in retaining wall construction to improve slope stability and increase soil bearing capacity for reinforcement purposes. They are available in uniaxial and biaxial types to meet different project requirements.
Geocomposite
Geocomposites are developed to meet single or double-directional strength requirements in infrastructure applications. They are formed by combining polyester geogrids with geotextiles, providing reinforcement, separation, and filtration in a single product, offering ease of application and labor savings.
They are widely used in bridge abutments, approach structures, road widening, steep slopes, landslide rehabilitation, landscaping walls, rockfall protection structures, and noise barriers.
Asphalt Reinforcement Geogrid
Asphalt reinforcement geogrids are used to delay crack formation and extend pavement life in road surfaces. They provide effective solutions against deformation and cracking caused by traffic loads and environmental effects.
AsfalTex improves pavement performance, reduces maintenance needs, and lowers operating costs.

Geomembrane
Geomembranes are synthetic impermeable liners used to provide barrier systems against solids, liquids, and gases. Manufactured from polymers such as HDPE, LDPE, and PVC, they ensure reliable waterproofing.
They are used in water structures, waste containment areas, and applications requiring impermeability.
Geotextile
Geotextiles are textile products made from polyester or polypropylene fibers through needling and thermal bonding. They perform filtration, separation, and protection functions to enhance soil performance.
They are widely used in soil stabilization, drainage systems, erosion control, and asphalt reinforcement.
Geocell
Geocells are three-dimensional geosynthetic structures made from HDPE or PE in a honeycomb form. They stabilize weak soils, prevent erosion, and increase load-bearing capacity.
They are used in slope protection, channel and dam applications, and as soil retention systems in green roofs.
Geosynthetic Polymer Straps
Geosynthetic polymer straps are high-strength reinforcement elements produced by coating polyester yarns with polyethylene. They provide reliable performance in reinforced soil structures.
They are commonly used in retaining walls and soil reinforcement applications.

Geomat
Geomat is a high-strength erosion control product made by knitting and stitching polyester fibers. It prevents soil loss and provides natural protection when combined with vegetation.
It is widely used on slopes and erosion-prone areas.
Geobag
Geobags are geosynthetic bags made of high-strength polypropylene fabric stitched with durable yarns. When filled with suitable material, they form flexible, water-resistant retaining structures.
They are used in coastal protection, pipeline cushioning, and filtration applications.
