High Load-Bearing GM356 HDPE Geocell Confinement System for Reinforced Slopes and Embankments
High Load-Bearing GM356 HDPE Geocell Confinement System for Reinforced Slopes and Embankments
GEOMAX® GEOCELL PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
GeoMax® GM356 Geocell provides structural reinforcement for slopes and embankments by converting loose fill into a stabilized composite layer. The welded cellular structure improves load transfer and limits lateral deformation.
It is suitable for transportation, infrastructure, and earth-retaining projects.

APPLICATIONS
 |
SOIL REINFORCEMENTGeomax®(Hdpe Geocell) is the solution to soil stabilization or soil reinforcement. It can increase the bearing capacity of the pavement and avoid cracking of the pavement. |
 |
SLOPE PROTECTIONGeomax®(Hdpe Geocell) is the obvious choice for slope protection or erosion control. It has both good drainage effect and slope protection. |
 |
CHANNEL PROTECTIONGeomax®(Hdpe Geocell) delivers stability and protection of channels |
 |
RETAINING WALLSGeomax®(Hdpe Geocell) offers highly permeable and acts as a great number of planting pots, allowing rainwater to infiltrate, minimizing runoff. |

FAQ:
Q1: Is GM356 suitable for embankment reinforcement?
Yes. It is commonly used to reinforce embankments and prevent surface deformation.
Q2: Does the system improve load distribution?
Yes. Loads are spread across the cellular network, reducing stress on the subgrade.
Q3: Can it be used with granular backfill?
Yes. Granular materials perform well when confined within the cells.
Q4: Is the system affected by long-term UV exposure?
The HDPE material contains carbon black for UV resistance in outdoor environments.
Q5: Does installation require specialized equipment?
No. Installation can be completed using standard construction tools.
