Industrial Fabrics, Inc. is a primary manufacturer and distributor of geotechnical products, including geotextile fabrics, geogrids, liner material, silt fence, erosion control, pipeline protection and paving products for the construction industry. Since 1981, Industrial Fabrics has proudly served many diverse clients in the construction, industrial and residential industries along the Gulf Coast and around the world. BBLM represents BaseLOK in the Philippines.
Geocells were first used and patented in the early 80's by the United States Army Corps of Engineers. The early use of the technology was for the construction of roads over soft soils for military use. Today, BaseLok™ GeoCell is not only used for base stabilization, but also for erosion control of slopes and channels as well as in construction of retaining walls.
The superior effectiveness of our BaseLok™ GeoCell is made even better thanks to our BaseLok™ team’s proficiency and technical support. We offer Lunch & Learns and Webinars for PDH credits and certificates, on-site visits and design assistance.
Variety of uses – including Base Stabilization, Slope Reinforcement, Channel Protection and Retaining Walls.
Significantly reduced cost with the use of on-site materials, decreased structural layer and a faster installation using the industry’s largest single size panels. This enables quicker installation compared to other geocell products. Custom manufacturing and on-site assistance also available from our GeoCell experts.
Allows for the construction of green infrastructure by reducing the need for non-renewable resources and creating a permeable and vegetated surface.
BaseLOK GeoCell In action.
BaseLok™ GeoCell is made from high density polyethylene (HDPE) and manufactured in the USA. HDPE has been used for the most demanding industrial products since 1955. The three-dimensional cells impede lateral movement of the infill material, increasing structural strength and locking in materials for erosion protection. The cell walls are perforated to allow water flow through the system, creating improved root zone between cells for vegetated applications. On concrete filled GeoCell, the HDPE matrix becomes the form for the concrete. There is no need for wood forms or rebar. The panels are expanded and the concrete poured directly into the GeoCell.
