Auroguard's HDPE Geocells are three-dimensional honeycomb cellular confinement systems for soil and aggregate stabilization on slopes, embankments, unpaved roads, and load-support platforms. Cell walls generate confinement pressure when filled with soil, gravel, or concrete dramatically increasing bearing capacity. Widely used in NHAI highway widening and railway embankment reinforcement. Textured cell walls provide superior soil-to-HDPE interface friction.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are HDPE geocells used for in road construction?
HDPE geocells are used for slope protection, embankment reinforcement, unpaved road stabilization and load-support platforms. Cell confinement increases bearing capacity 2–10× over unconfined fill material.
What cell height geocells are used for road embankments?
100mm to 150mm cell height geocells are typically used for highway embankment slope protection. Shallower 50–75mm geocells are used for road surface reinforcement and paving systems.
Does Auroguard supply geocells for NHAI projects?
Yes. Auroguard supplies ASTM D4437 and GRI-GS3 compliant HDPE geocells for NHAI highway embankment, PWD slope protection and contractor unpaved road stabilization projects.
