COMPANY BACKGROUND:
Huesker is a
manufacturer of Fortrac® high tenacity polyester (PET) geogrids and Comtrac®
high strength polyester geotextiles.
Fortrac® high
tenacity polyester (PET) geogrids:
Fortrac geogrids
are comprised of high tenacity polyester yarns woven or knitted into a grid
pattern creating a flexible reinforcement for soil structures. A polymeric
coating is applied to the geogrid to stabilize the yarn configuration and to
provide protection from potential installation and exposure damage. Fortrac
geogrids consists of polyester yarns that have a moleculare weight greater than
25,000 g/mol and a Carboxyl End Group of less than 25 meq/kg.
Fortrac geogrids
are used to reinforce retaining walls, slopes and embankments, synthetic and
natural landfill lining systems, along with railroad and roadway base
materials. Fortrac geogrids have wide width tensile strengths ranging from
15KN/m to 500 KN/m and are produced with finished roll widths of 3.7 and 5
meters.
Comtrac® high
strength geotextiles:
Comtrac geotextiles are high strength woven polyester reinforcement products used in the construction of embankments over soft soils. Comtrac geotextiles provide tensile reinforcement of soil structures in addition to separation of dissimilar materials. Tensile strengths of Comtrac geotextiles range from 90 KN/m to 800 KN/m with standard roll widths of 5 meters. Comtrac geotextiles can be interwoven with a select nonwoven geotextile to provide high strength and separation for use with extremely fine grained saturated soils.
