Benefits

Great drainage capacity

While Reinforced Earth® structures, which have great drainage capacity, can be built to cope with tides or rapid drawdowns, a combination with waterproofing membranes makes them an excellent solution for water retaining structures such as dams, reservoirs and dykes.

Built to resist

The Reinforced Earth® technique is resistant to very severe water pressure, be it caused by waves, tidal actions, storms, flooding, or rapid drawdowns, withstands shocks and collisions, for example from ships or pack ice, as well as seismic events.

Suitable for aggressive environments

Our comprehensive range of reinforcements offer solutions for aggressive environments, such as sea or brackish water and chemicals, or where chemically aggressive materials are sourced for backfill.
