Neoloy® Geocells Help Achieve Green & Sustainable Goals
Neoloy Geocells are an ideal sustainable road development and solution in South Africa. They use local or recycled materials, reduces use of virgin resources
Neoloy Geocells are an ideal sustainable road development solution. Neoloy uses local or recycled materials, reduces use of virgin resources, lowers carbon footprint, is more durable and lowers costs. In transportation and infrastructure, Neoloy can lower maintenance budgets while Neoloy Geocells in slope, channel and retention applications achieve multiple environmental goals at a lower cost.
Neoloy is non-soluble, non-hazardous, non-flammable, non-corrosive, non-toxic, environmentally safe and user friendly.
Sustainable Roads Neoloy is an ideal sustainable road construction technique, offering high engineering value at low environmental and economic costs. |
Neoloy confinement improves the performance of RAP and other recycled materials, while utilizing less bitumen and less aggregate. |
In landscape architecture, transportation & civil engineering Neoloy Geocells achieve environmental objectives at a lower cost. |
Benefits
