Geogrids are widely used in civil engineering and construction projects to improve ground performance, increase load distribution, and reduce the thickness of granular layers. The Corden EPS Geogrid is a biaxial, extruded polypropylene geogrid designed specifically for soil reinforcement applications where long-term strength and durability are required.
Manufactured from a high-strength polymer, the geogrid consists of stiff ribs running at right angles to each other, forming regular square apertures (typically 39mm x 39mm). This structure allows loads to be absorbed and distributed in two directions, improving the stability and working life of roads, pavements, railways, and other trafficked areas.

● High tensile strength in both directions
● Regular aperture structure for effective interlock with aggregate
● Chemically inert and resistant to degradation
● Suitable for soil reinforcement
Ground Reinforcement
Geogrids are used to reduce the thickness of granular layers while maintaining performance. By improving load distribution, the Corden EPS Geogrid can reduce aggregate thickness by up to 30%, delivering material and transport cost savings. Typical designs can achieve around 25% savings compared to standard construction methods.
Roads and Railways
By reinforcing weak subgrades, geogrids improve strength and extend the service life of roads and rail infrastructure, reducing long-term maintenance requirements.
Brownfield Sites and Differential Settlement
On sites with variable or poor ground conditions, geogrids help control differential settlement. They offer a cost-effective alternative to piled platforms, with potential project savings of over 50%, depending on design.
Erosion Control and Challenging Ground
Geogrids enable construction on difficult sites such as marshland or lagoon areas, helping avoid costly re-routing of roads or rail lines and reducing programme delays.
Bridging Voids and Temporary Works
Corden EPS Geogrid can be used as a temporary solution to bridge ground that may be subject to collapse. This improves on-site safety, protects operatives, and allows work to continue without compromising health and safety.
