Geocell provides a direct, cost-effective solution. The high-strength cell walls maintain the shape and integrity of the structure, allowing for heavy equivalent axle loads without fear of lateral movement of the fill material. The cellular design of Geocell also distributes the loads to an extended area, thus reducing the stress to the grid itself as well as to the sub-grade below. The thickness of the overall framework and sub-base can be decreased with equivalent or greater structural integrity. In most cases the HDPE Geocell solution can reduce a typical cross section to 1/3 or the original design. This can also create pavement reduction due to the higher base structural value.

Using HDPE Geocell for road base reinforcement also allows for lower quality aggregates found locally, eliminating the need to import better or more material. Compact sections of geocell filled with sandy soil can thus replace truckloads of crushed stone or other granular fill or even asphalt or concrete. The geocell can also be used as the form for a geocell reinforced concrete.

For certain applications the HDPE Geocell can be used in conjunction with other geosynthetic materials such as geotextiles, biaxial grids, triaxial grids, geogrids and geomembrane liners.
