AFITER - Soil stabilization on slopes

Use

AFITER® is a three-dimensional reinforcement flexible mat made with polyester cables. Its unique structure is designed to stabilize soil or granular material on slopes, control erosion and promote revegetation. 

AFITER® can be installed to prevent the failure of a soil veneer cover placed over a liner system on a slope. It supports the soil cover and minimizes the tensile strain on the underlying layers.

Benefits

  • Three-dimensional reinforcement flexible mat
  • High tensile modulus
  • Soil cover stabilization, erosion control and revegetation
  • Long term performances
  • Light product and easy to install
