Geoflax basalt geogrid
Geoflax basalt geogrid
Geoflax basalt geogrid is made of basalt strands (roving) with
subsequent impregnation. Due to its properties the basalt wire mesh is
Basalt is an optimum alternative to reinforcing meshes based on metal.
Basalt is an igneous rock formed by the rapid cooling of
lava poured out on the surface of the earth. Among the advantages of basalt
rocks are resistant to abrasion, acids and alkalis,
the advantages of basalt rock materials are their resistance to abrasion, resistance to acids and alkalis, durability, vapour permeability, high dielectricity, fire resistance, thermal
thermal insulation, noise absorption and environmental friendliness.
Fields of application:
● Reinforcement of asphalt concrete layers;
As a bond in two-layer walls with a brick lining with a main inner layer of various wall materials
Strengthening of bearing, self-supporting and non-bearing (partition walls) walls made of various masonry materials
Reinforcement of the plaster layer of walls made of various masonry materials to increase their monolithic, seismic and crack resistance;
Reinforcement of brick partitions and columns with composite mesh banding;
Reinforcement of horizontal joints of masonry walls made of various materials to increase the bearing capacity in different types of the stressed state and monolithicity;
Reinforcement of masonry walls made of large-format ceramic stone with a hollowness of more than 30% to prevent mortar penetration into the masonry joints;
Armoring of floor screeds made of mortar and concrete mixes to increase their strength and eliminate shrinkage cracks.
Advantages of Geoflax basalt geogrid:
1. Resistant to corrosion and aggressive acid and alkaline environments.
2. Low thermal conductivity, doesn’t become a “cold bridge”, increases thermal efficiency of constructions.
thermal efficiency of structures.
3. High adhesion (coupling with mortar or asphalt concrete layer).
4. Light weight. Basalt meshes are 7 times lighter than metal meshes.
