Techcell 100 is a geocellular confinement system designed for surface reinforcement, soil stabilisation, and erosion control. With a 100mm cell depth, it offers increased containment and load distribution compared to shallower variants, making it ideal for access routes, construction haul roads, slope retention, and root protection applications. Once filled with aggregate or soil, Techcell 100 forms a flexible cellular mattress that locks infill in place, enhancing surface stability with minimal excavation.
Materials and Structure
Techcell 100 is manufactured from high-density polyethylene (HDPE), chosen for its strength, flexibility, and durability. The system comprises HDPE strips ultrasonically welded at regular intervals to form a robust, three-dimensional geocellular matrix. Each cell has a depth of 100mm, providing enhanced vertical confinement suitable for applications requiring moderate load distribution and soil stabilisation.
Supplied in a compact, folded format, Techcell 100 expands on-site to create a stable and adaptable structure. Once filled with soil, gravel, or other aggregate, the cellular system acts as a load-spreading layer, reducing deformation and supporting the long-term integrity of the surface.
Benefits and Core Uses
-
Access Road Reinforcement: Stabilises unpaved haul roads and access routes by distributing vehicle loads across soft or uneven ground.
-
Tree Root Protection: Creates a no-dig load-bearing surface over root protection zones, helping prevent compaction and damage.
-
Slope and Embankment Stabilisation: Confines infill to prevent downslope movement and erosion on gradients.
-
Temporary or Permanent Surfacing: Suitable for car parks, site compounds, and light-duty access areas.
-
Improved Load Distribution: Reduces sub-base depth requirements while supporting structural integrity.
-
Flexible Site Application: Easily expanded, cut to fit, and installed over contoured terrain.
