Enkagrid® G & M

Enkagrid G and M is a range of certified high performance woven geogrids for soil reinforcement. They are manufactured from high tenacity PET and PVA yarns with a PVC coating. Can be used together with Enkamat and our other products to preserve the natural appearance of slopes.

Enkagrid G and M can be used for a variety of different applications. Typical areas of use include reinforcement of roads, railways and airports, embankments, foundations over poor ground, as well as retaining walls and slopes, noise barriers and landslide repair.

The product is flexible and easy to work with, and will lay flat and not spring back once laid out on the ground. Enkagrid G and M can be used together with other Bonar products to enhance the natural appearance of slopes.
