In port quays, container yards, hydrocarbon storage terminals or working platforms, PRS Neoloy Tough-Cell geocell technology is used the world over for resilient port stabilization and reinforcement.  

Neoloy’s validated high dynamic modulus, tensile strength and low permanent deformation make them an ideal soil stabilization solution for marine ports stabilization. Due to its high improvement factors (subgrade 7.6x and modulus 5x), Neoloy geocell-reinforced layers act as a slab (“beam effect”). This improves subgrade bearing capacity, distributes loads widely and limits differential settlement even under heavy-duty loads associated with port operations. In load transfer platforms (LTP) Neoloy platform stabilization enables optimized designs that reduce the number of pile columns.     

Neoloy Tough-Cells verified reinforcement factors also enable a thinner pavement layer, even while using locally dredged sand for structural fill. Compared to reinforced concrete-steel solutions, stabilized cement layers and other geosynthetics solutions, Neoloy Tough-Cells reinforced port pavements are proven faster to build – and at lower cost. This is achieved at an equivalent or longer service life with less maintenance (and downtime) over the project lifespan.
