Stabilenka® Geotextile

Strengths of up to 2,800 kN/m, state-of-the-art weaving technology and proven resistance of up to 120 years, to chemical, physical and microbiological action have made Stabilenka one of the best performing woven reinforcement products anywhere in the world. Stabilenka offers an unbeatably cost-effective solution to the most stringent project requirements by combining three functions in a single product: reinforcement, separation and filtration. Unlike many alternative products on the market, Stabilenka is manufactured from special multifilament yarn that allows the achievement of moduli exceeding 45,000 kN/m. As a new addition to the Stabilenka family, Stabilenka Xtreme excels by its outstanding durability, even in highly alkaline environments with pH values of up to 13.

Features

  • Unmatched tensile strengths of up to 2,800 kN/m (uniaxial) and 1,400 kN/m (biaxial)

  • Woven fabric sheet for reinforcement, separation and filtration

  • High tensile stiffness coupled with low creep

  • Moduli exceeding 45,000 kN/m

  • High durability in soils with pH values of 2 to 13

  • Customised strengths, roll lengths and placement plans

  • Proven durability of up to 120 years

  • Multiple certification: BBA, IVG, NorGeoSpec, EPD

Stabilenka is a registered trademark of HUESKER Synthetic GmbH.

Up until February 2019, Stabilenka Xtreme was known as Robutec.

Stabilenka

Product description

Boasting a product history of over 50 years, Stabilenka enjoys the distinction of being one of the world’s first ever
reinforcement geotextiles. Due to the raw material used (PET) and modules of more than 25,000 kN/m, the
geotextile product offers high tensile stiffness coupled with a low creep tendency. Our Stabilenka geotextile
reduces deformations of the structure under permanently high loads. Stabilenka exhibits an extremely low creep
strain of less than 1% when subjected to a permanent load equal to 50% of the short-term strength after the
construction phase. The use of Stabilenka on subgrades with low bearing capacity thus eli­minates the need for
soil replacement, conventional soil stabilization measures and long consolidation times that delay the progress of
the works. In addition to standard stock products, we are also happy to assist with tailored solutions for you.

Features

  • Unmatched tensile strengths of up to 2,500 kN/m (uniaxial) and 1,000 kN/m (biaxial)
  • Moduli exceeding 25,000 kN/m
  • High tensile stiffness coupled with low creep
  • High resistance to microbiological, chemical and physical action
  • Reliable solution for very weak soils
  • Customised strengths, roll lengths and placement plans
  • High durability in soils with pH values of 2 to 9

 

Applications

  • Embankments on Soft Soil
  • Reinforcement, as part of geotextile-encased column system, for embankments built on
    soils with low bearing capacity
  • Land reclamation
  • Sludge lagoon capping

Stabilenka Xtreme

Product description

Stabilenka Xtreme is an extremely rigid, creep-resistant and alkali-resistant geotextile. You can use it as reinforcement
in the ground when conventional products or raw materials no longer meet the high project-specific requirements.
These include, for example, a strict limitation of deformations or very high and low pH values in the soil. Due to the raw
materials used (PVA/PP) and modules of more than 45,000 kN/m, our reinforcement fabric offers very high tensile
stiffness coupled with low creep tendency, thereby reducing structural deformation under high long term loads. The use
of Stabilenka Xtreme on subgrades with low bearing capacity thus eli­minates the need for soil replacement, conventional
soil stabilisation measures and long consolidation times that delay the progress of the works. In addition, you can also
use our Stabilenka Xtreme geotextile in highly alkaline environments with pH values of up to 13. In addition to standard
stock products, we are also happy to assist with tailored solutions for you.
