Stabilenka® is a high quality, permeable woven suitable for soil reinforcement

Woven with a polyester yarn in the length direction (warp) and with polyamide or polyester yarns in the cross direction (weft), the use of high-modulus polyester multifilament yarn and a special patented weaving process (straight warp and no crimp) ensures that Stabilenka® mobilises high tensile forces at low elongations. The low-creep yarn subjected to a permanent load of 50% of the short-term ultimate tensile strength results in a creep elongation of less than 1% after two years.

Stabilenka® is manufactured in nine standard versions with tensile strengths up to 1,000 kN/m in the principal loading direction.

Stabilenka® was one of the world's first reinforcement geosynthetics. Since its first use in 1974, Stabilenka® has proved itself in hundreds of projects.

Typical applications: reinforcement of embankments constructed on soft ground stabilisation in river maintenance schemes, breakwater and jetty construction reinforced earth structures spanning sinkhole areas

Properties: high tensile forces at low elongation low creep high resistance to micro-organisms, chemical and mechanical damage
