Ports & Logistics

Ports, container terminals, logistics parks and industrial storage facilities are subjected to heavy static and cyclic loading from container stacks, reach stackers, RTGs, trailers and material handling equipment. Geosynthetic engineering solutions enhance the strength and stability of weak foundation soils, enabling safe and economic development of high-load infrastructure on challenging ground conditions.
