Description
MIRAGRID PEC 55/55 - Engineered Geocomposite for Subgrade Stabilisation
MIRAGRID® PEC 55/55 is a biaxial reinforcement geocomposite designed to stabilise weak subgrades and improve load distribution in road, mining, and civil infrastructure applications.
It combines:
-
High modulus polyester geogrid (reinforcement)
-
Continuous filament nonwoven geotextile (separation & filtration)
This dual-function design makes it the preferred solution for subgrade stabilisation, eliminating the need for separate geogrid and geotextile layers.
WHY ENGINEERS SPECIFY MIRAGRID PEC
-
Reinforcement + separation in one engineered product
-
Reduces layer thickness and construction time
-
Improves load distribution over weak subgrades
-
Controls rutting and deformation under traffic
-
Performs effectively with fine-grained or marginal fills
-
Reduces requirement for imported high-quality aggregates

Supply, delivery and installation across Africa
Geosynthetics South Africa undertakes projects through three service options:
- Supply only - products supplied to the agreed specification.
- Supply and delivery - materials and logistics coordinated to your project site.
- Supply, delivery and QA/QC-controlled installation - one coordinated scope from procurement to documented handover.
For projects across Africa, we coordinate with the Geosynthetics Africa Group to mobilise installation crews from group companies across the continent. Materials, delivery, mobilisation and project-specific quality records are agreed as part of the project scope.

Supply, delivery & installation
South African supply
We are the South African supplier of MIRAGRID PEC biaxial geocomposites. We have ready stock of standard grades and formats for South African projects.
Delivery & cross-border supply
We supply MIRAGRID PEC biaxial geocomposites across South Africa and Southern Africa, including cross-border delivery. We coordinate site access, unloading and cross-border documentation for your order.
How we install
We install MIRAGRID PEC biaxial geocomposites. Prepare the formation and treat soft areas identified by the engineer. Lay geogrids in the designed reinforcement direction, connect or overlap them as specified and remove slack. Place suitable fill in controlled lifts and compact without direct plant trafficking on exposed grid.

SELECTION · SPECIFICATION · PROJECT SUPPLY
Choose the right specification
Separate aggregate stabilisation from designed tensile soil reinforcement before choosing a grid or composite.
- For stabilisation, define subgrade, aggregate, traffic or working load and permitted deformation.
- For walls, slopes and basal reinforcement, obtain the required long-term design strength, geometry and interfaces.
- Confirm grade, orientation, joint or connection details and any separation or filtration layer.
Define the quality records
Record roll identity, reinforcement direction and location, joints, connections, fill placement and the specified compaction controls.
For a useful quotation: send the grade or performance specification, quantity, location, required date and scope. Availability, delivery and installation responsibilities are confirmed in the quotation.
