Railway
Railways, one of the most widely used means of transportation from the past to the present, have accommodated different production techniques and material uses with the advancement of technology. Today, geosynthetic materials, especially used in track construction, have accelerated the construction methodology and at the same time ensured economic efficiency in material use.
- You can increase the rate of settlement that occurs over time by using wick drains (strip drains) to solve consolidation problems in the ground.
- Geogrids are used to increase the load-bearing capacity of ballast and sub-ballast materials (by reducing material volume).
- Surface erosion on cut slopes can be prevented using geomat and cellular system materials.
- In areas with capillary action problems, drainage composites can be used to accelerate the rapid removal of water from the platform.
- In soils experiencing consolidation problems, soil reinforcement can be achieved by using geogrids in the base layer.
- It is possible to prevent the mixing of the base material and the sub-ballast material by using geotextile.
- Platform fillings can be constructed using geosynthetic-reinforced retaining walls.
- Construction of the drainage line along the route using geodrain (composite drainage system)
Geosynthetics in Railways
Geosynthetic products can be used to develop fast and economical solutions during the construction and post-operation maintenance periods of railway lines.

Products
BentoShield's leakproof technology effectively combines the unique swelling performance of sodium bentonite granules or bentonite powder with two high-strength geotextiles.
Polymer-modified sodium bentonite granules form a clay blanket by mechanically bonding to both woven and non-woven geotextile materials.
Geo-Matress© is a geotextile mat formed by filling the interior of two-layer polypropylene geotextile sheets with fine aggregate concrete.
The GeoDrain product family is a composite material consisting of a polymer drainage core combined with a nonwoven geotextile that provides protection and filtration on one or both sides.
These are new generation drainage lines that can be brought to the field ready for use thanks to prefabricated structures.
Geomat is a high-strength mat material produced from polyamide or polypropylene raw material in a three-dimensional open structure.
GeoMat R is a high-performance geosynthetic reinforced with high-strength polyester geogrid within the interwoven filaments of a three-dimensional polyamide erosion control mat.
Protex PolyLock is a versatile, new-generation waterproofing system specially developed for tunnel insulation. It provides strong protection by combining self-healing polymer-modified sodium bentonite granules with an impermeable PE film and an active polymer layer.
SandMax is a three-layer geocomposite material developed to protect slopes or constructed structures in challenging field conditions. It contains enriched quartz sand and is combined with nonwoven geotextiles.
TechGrid© D is manufactured with high-strength polyester yarns and is woven with a dimensionally stable pore opening that has equal tensile strength in both directions. Its chemical and mechanical properties are enhanced with PVC or PVA coating, making it durable and suitable for use in harsh soil conditions.
It is a special material used to reinforce asphalt roads and increase their durability. TechGrid© GF is a geogrid made from reinforced glass fiber strands and coated with bitumen. Produced by technologically advanced companies worldwide, this material has a refined and purified crystalline bitumen form.
TechGrid GFG is a composite asphalt grid created by combining geogrids made from reinforced glass fiber strands with high tensile strength and coated with bitumen, with ultra-lightweight nonwoven geotextiles. It reduces load concentration, delays cracking, and is cost-effective.
TechGrid© are high-strength and extremely flexible geogrids with a proven track record in soil reinforcement. They are used in retaining structures, embankments, and platforms. They are coated with PVC or PVA depending on the soil structure where they will be used.
