Geocell – Cellular Filling Systems

Cellular Filling Systems operated by filling its pores in a honeycomb structure provides alternatives to geogrid materials. Geocell (Cellular Filling System) material operates under the geogrid principles. They play the reinforcement role of Geogrids in soil and retaining walls.
The fundamental difference between the Geogrid and cellular filling system is that cellular filling system works with being filled. Cellular filling systems that look like honeycomb is used to establish a load bearing platform and to increase load bearing capacity of the soil in roads and railroads.
Cellular filling systems can be stacked to produce retaining wall to create a wall with blocks on the front surface.
Cellular filling systems can be used in slopes by filling with vegetable soil to create vegetation on the surface.
Cellular Filling Systems are honeycomb textured coating material made of Geocell Polymeric Compound. It has a wide range of applications from single layer road, soil, landslide, erosion and bedding applications to multilayer retaining wall and protection barriers.
It enables the use of natural filling materials on site rather than expensive filling materials. Not only does it enable use of cost free local materials but it also reduces filling depth by 50% compared to classical methods. Three dimensional cells increase bearing capacity and prevents collapses by compacting filling material.
Cellular Filling System adds strength by increasing strength and hardness rate of the structural filling. Thus, it creates a hard structural bridge with high flexible power, improving load deformation performance with simple filling materials
Its cellular geometry creates natural drainage structure while preventing filling material to be damaged by hydraulic flows. It prevents accumulation of hydrostatic pressure by preventing forces to influence the ground.
Geocell Cellular Filling Systems are erosion protection and soil reinforcement materials made of three dimensional, honeycomb textured special polymeric compound. With the general purpose of preventing soil caused by wind and water on sloped surfaces, Geocell CFS is produced with perforated structure for quick drainage and easily compacting filling material. Adhered with special ultrasound welding technology in factory, they can be shipped to the site in cellular strips.

Cells can be filled with different materials (sand, pebbles, soil, ground stone, concrete, etc.) based on the purpose of use and surface load. Cell heights vary from 50 to 200 mm depending on the project. CFS is produced from first class polymers according the global standards, in compliance with international norms..

Shipped to the site during application in accordion shape, Geocell material forms create strips tied to each other to create small flexible walled structures and when filled with required filling material and compacted, they create three dimensional robust structures. They improve structural and functional features of filling material by providing tensile strength to the ground.
