MacGrid® WG

MacGrid® WG series of woven geogrids are predominantly used in Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) and Reinforced Soil Slope (RSS) structures of virtually any height, and for stabilizing and reinforcing subgrades. They have a polyester core encased in a tough PVC sheathing. The sheathing and dimensions of the polyester MacGrids® mean that almost any type of backfill can be used, from large granular fill to more cohesive materials.

MacGrid® reinforced soil slopes are generally designed to vegetate, therefore a wedge of topsoil is placed behind the face of the reinforced slope. A bio-degradable blanket is installed preventing the topsoil and fill from spilling out between the apertures in the grid, and accelerates the vegetation of the slope.

MacGrid® WG has also been tested to be used with most of the Segmental Block Manufacturers like block Lock+Load, Keystone, Rockwood, Anchor and Versa-lok.
