Enkagrid® PRO
Enkagrid PRO is a uniaxial high strength laser-welded geogrid for the reinforcement of slopes, walls, embankments, platforms and foundations.
The structure of highly oriented laser-welded polyester strips provides powerful and dependable reinforcement in demanding situations in civil engineering or building projects. Thanks to its superior mechanical properties, the long term performance of Enkagrid PRO is outstanding. The engineered structure of Enkagrid employs cutting edge manufacturing concepts such as the patented computer controlled laser-welding process. Using this laser technology, the quality of the junction bonds is precisely controlled during production. This creates consistently rigid joints throughout the geogrid without affecting the polymer orientation or stress strain performance of the extruded strips.
