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 Tensar TriAx TX170 geogrids. We have ready stock of standard grades and formats for South African projects.

Delivery & cross-border supply

We supply Tensar TriAx TX170 geogrids 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 Tensar TriAx TX170 geogrids. 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.

Specialist installation supported by Geosynthetics Africa (Pty) Ltd, an IAGI Installer Member.

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.
