Today, geogrid and geotextiles are extensively being employed in civil engineering and other related industries. Hence, it is important to ensure that the material is subjected to specialized testing, thereby making it suitable for its proposed application and environmental conditions. Aquaculture Pond Liners

Geotextiles & Geogrid Testing: Evaluating Strength & Performance

Testometric provides a wide range of strength testing machines and accessories that are designed specifically for testing geotextiles, capacities ranging from 5 to 300 kN.

Standard grips can make it difficult to hold certain geotextiles and hence are not suitable for such purposes. With years of experience in the field, Testometric provides a wide range of manual, hydraulic, and pneumatic grips that are particularly designed for these materials. These grips can hold the sample without slippage or damage. The cmpany also offers a wide range of puncture rigs.

In some applications, elongation has to be measured over a particular section. Testometric offers a range of video extensometers and non-contact lasers that can be used with this type of material.
