GREEN AFIWALL - mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) retaining wall - AFIWALL

Use

The construction of infrastructure sometimes requires working on very steep slopes. The AFIWALL® range offers various simple and rapid construction methods which provide a variety of solutions to complete these structures.

The Green AFIWALL® technology is used as part of the development and revegetation of reinforced retaining structures. This solution consists of three products :

  • A specifically designed reinforcing geosynthetic such as Notex® C with acrylic coating, reducing damage caused by installation
  • A drainage geocomposite such as SOMTUBE® FTF to combat water ingress in the technical embankment
  • Specific facing combining welded wire mesh with shuttering brackets

Benefits

  • An innovative and cost-effective solution consisting of 3 products supplied by AFITEXINOV for the facing, drainage and plantable reinforcement of the structure
  • Construction of very high, stable retaining walls
  • Installation of a geogrid with a mesh aperture conducive to revegetation
  • Sustainable, maintenance-free revegetation, even in the event of steep gradients
  • Better integration into the landscape
