TenCate Geosynthetics Americas has developed a third patent pending geosynthetic for road and railway reinforcement, called TenCate Mirafi RS280i. The woven product completes the RSi series of geosynthetics for base reinforcement and subgrade stabilization.

In 2010, the company introduced TenCate Mirafi RS580i, a highly engineered, high strength geosynthetic product for base reinforcement and subgrade stabilization. This was followed in 2011 with the development of TenCate Mirafi RS380i, a second option for less severe applications.

TenCate Geosynthetics has introduced TenCate Mirafi RS280i, another highly engineered geosynthetic that completes the RSi series of products which enables a designer to provide the most economical and efficient design for subgrade stabilization and base reinforcement applications. TenCate Mirafi RS280i combines high modulus, high permittivity, high separation and a high coefficient of interaction to maximize its benefit for road and railway performance.

Economical solutions

"We are constantly exploring ways to improve our product portfolio to provide the most economical solutions to project owners", says Brett Odgers, PE, Market Manager Roadway Reinforcement. "With the success that TenCate Mirafi RS580i and TenCate Mirafi RS380i have had to accomplish this goal, we felt a final product was needed to complete the series to provide the best solution for all road and railway reinforcement and stabilization projects."

TenCate Mirafi RSi series products are available through the extensive distribution network of TenCate throughout North and South America.

 TenCate Geosynthetics develops and produces synthetics fabrics, nonwovens and grids, and designs solutions and systems for infrastructure and civil engineering. The company has plants in Europe, North America and Asia.
