Techcell 150 is a geocellular confinement system designed for ground stabilisation, load support, and erosion control in more demanding applications. With a 150mm cell depth, it offers enhanced containment of granular infill, making it ideal for stabilising construction compounds, access roads, steep slopes, and embankments. Once expanded and filled on site, it forms a flexible three-dimensional structure that resists lateral movement, improves load-bearing performance, and protects against surface degradation.
Materials and Structure
Techcell 150 is constructed from high-density polyethylene (HDPE), with strips welded together at fixed intervals to form a robust, expandable matrix. Each cell is 150mm deep, providing significant vertical confinement of soil or aggregate.
The system is supplied in a folded format for easy handling and rapid deployment. Once expanded and infilled, the interconnected cells create a load-distributing mattress that stabilises soft subgrades, controls erosion on slopes, and improves structural reliability across large areas.
Benefits and Core Uses
-
Heavy-Duty Ground Stabilisation: Ideal for stabilising unpaved roads, compounds, and access areas with heavier traffic.
-
Embankment and Slope Retention: Constrains fill on gradients, reducing erosion and surface movement.
-
Load Support over Soft Soils: Improves performance over weak subgrades by distributing loads across a wider area.
-
Tree Root Protection in Structural Zones: Supports access across root zones without excavation or compaction.
-
Low-Maintenance Surfacing: Prevents rutting and migration of infill over time, even under repeated use.
-
Simple Site Handling: Supplied flat-packed, expands quickly and adapts to irregular or contoured terrain.
RBS on Techcell 150
Techcell has been used successfully in civil engineering, infrastructure, and environmental applications requiring reliable ground reinforcement. The 150mm model is a popular choice for sites needing a stronger, deeper confinement layer to deal with high traffic or significant gradients. Its practical installation and track record in stabilisation projects make it a dependable solution for engineers and contractors working across varied ground conditions.
