Techcell 75 is a geocellular confinement system designed for surface stabilisation, erosion control, and no-dig applications such as tree root protection. Manufactured from high-density polyethylene (HDPE), it forms a flexible three-dimensional matrix that confines infill materials, creating a stable cellular mattress once deployed on site. With a 75mm depth, this variant is ideal for shallow installations where ground protection is needed without deep excavation, including footpaths, access routes, and root protection zones.
Materials and Structure
Techcell 75 is manufactured from high-density polyethylene (HDPE), selected for its strength, flexibility, and durability. Individual HDPE strips are ultrasonically welded at regular intervals to form a lightweight yet robust geocellular matrix. When expanded on site, the panel forms a series of interconnected cells, each 75mm deep.
This 75mm depth makes it ideal for shallow-layer installations where minimal excavation is required. The system is supplied in a compact, concertina-style format for efficient transport and handling. Once filled with aggregate or soil, Techcell 75 forms a stable, three-dimensional mattress that enhances surface strength while maintaining flexibility under load.
Benefits and Core Uses
-
No-Dig Tree Root Protection: Ideal for use in root protection zones where excavation is restricted under BS 5837 guidelines.
-
Shallow Ground Stabilisation: Reinforces surfaces for pedestrian and light vehicle use without the need for deep sub-base construction.
-
Erosion Control: Stabilises embankments and slopes by confining fill and preventing soil displacement.
-
Improved Load Distribution: Reduces surface rutting and subsidence by spreading applied loads across a wider area.
-
Flexible Installation: Easily cut to size on site and adaptable to irregular ground conditions.
-
Efficient Handling: Delivered flat-packed and quick to deploy, minimising installation time.
RBS on Techcell 75
Techcell is a trusted geocellular confinement solution for ground stabilisation, erosion control, and shallow installation scenarios. The 75mm depth is well suited to applications where only shallow layer fill is needed, such as pedestrian access, certain tree root protection zones, and soft landscaping. With a simple installation process and reliable performance in variable site conditions, Techcell offers a practical, low-maintenance way to reinforce surfaces and control soil movement.
