Basalt geosynthetics

Made from basalt roving and coated with resins, basalt grids have a wide range of applications in construction, road surfaces, earthworks, and simple soil reinforcements. Basalt is a very durable material, resistant to fire and chemically inert. Basalt roving and the grids made from it, in addition to the natural properties of their raw material, exhibit high tensile strength. This makes them ideal for use in various environments, including aggressive ones, in solutions requiring structural stabilization and reinforcement of layers or connections under tension. Depending on the required strength parameters and the specifics of the application, geogrids come in different mesh thicknesses and aperture sizes. All are coated with epoxy resin, which provides rigidity and binds the roving, while also increasing adhesion to the reinforced material – for this reason, additional coatings, such as bituminous ones for asphalt surfaces, are sometimes used. For soil applications, grids combined with geotextiles are used. Basalt grids have versatile applications: - roads, railway lines, pipelines, as well as chemically loaded hydraulic structures and waste storage facilities – strengthening of the substrate and earth structures, - embankments and slopes – reinforcement and erosion protection, - mole barriers as a durable protection for lawns in any environment, - mineral-asphalt road surfaces – structural reinforcement and significant reduction of ruts, - floor screeds – improved strength, - external and internal plasters – leveling and reinforcement, - wall reinforcement – reinforcing masonry joints and connecting load-bearing walls with protective ones in layered partitions, especially important in renovated buildings, in seismic areas, and in areas affected by mining damage.
