NOTEX Glass Geogrid is a polymer coated glass-fibre grid for asphalt reinforcement. Its main application is in highway re-surfacing to prevent reflective cracking and extend the life of new bituminous layers. The installation of NOTEX Glass Geogrid reinforces the pavement and inhibits crack formation, so the durability of the surface and road is extended.
Extensive research by major road laboratories in Europe have demonstrated the benefits of NOTEX Glass Geogrid to eliminate or retard reflective cracking, reduce rutting and extend fatigue life of a pavement. NOTEX Glass Geogrid works by preventing strains in the asphalt from reaching a critical level. Laid within an asphalt/bitmac surface NOTEX Glass Geogrid provides the three essentials; reinforcement, sealing and good inter-layer bonding. NOTEX Glass Geogrid is the cost effective solution to surface or road strengthening.
NOTEX Glass Geogrid is compatible with all types of surfacing, including modern thin asphaltic concrete. NOTEX Glass Geogrid can be used with a minimum 70mm overlay thickness and SBS modified binders.
