LANDFILL AFITER
Use
Landfill covers feature slopes with varying gradients, where the topsoil cover must be maintained on the waterproofing / drainage system during installation and over time.
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.
AFITER® guarantees sustainable protection for decades.
Benefits
- Three-dimensional reinforcement flexible mat
- High tensile modulus
- Soil cover stabilization, erosion control and revegetation
