Challenging ground conditions call for dependable reinforcement. RockGrid® KX geogrid works by interlocking with the fill, confining soil and distributing loads across weak or variable ground.

Why choose RockGrid® KX?
• Improves bearing capacity
• Helps limit settlement
• Reduces excavation needs for long-term performance

For this irrigation dam, EnviroFix® GCL was installed over the basin and slopes as the barrier liner. The bentonite core hydrates to form a low-permeability seal and allows neat detailing at pipe penetrations.

• Limits seepage and protects the formation
• Thin liner installs quickly and preserves storage volume

Kaytech was proud to be represented at the 11th South African Young Geotechnical Engineers (YGE) Conference, hosted by the Geotechnical Division of SAICE, from 15–18 September 2026.

Siyanda Manqele presented his paper, "Investigating treatment methods for poor subgrade materials in road pavement design focusing on geosynthetic reinforcement", while Monique Albertyn presented, "Stability of geosynthetic and compacted clay liners on mining slopes."

The conference provided a valuable opportunity to engage with industry, exchange ideas and discuss the challenges and developments shaping the geotechnical sector.

Thank you to the Geotechnical Division of SAICE for hosting a valuable platform for learning, collaboration and professional development.

Toe drains play a vital role in controlling seepage and maintaining the stability of lined facilities. If not properly filtered, fines can migrate into the system, causing clogging and reducing efficiency.

In this application, bidim® nonwoven geotextile is used to line a toe drain, acting as a durable filter. It allows water to flow freely into the drainage pipe while preventing soil movement, ensuring the system remains effective over the long term.

Key benefits:
• Provides reliable filtration to prevent clogging and soil loss
• Maintains long-term performance of the drainage system
• Contributes to the overall stability of the facility

Building platforms and access roads over weak subgrades can result in deformation, aggregate loss, and increased maintenance under heavy equipment traffic.

Kaytech's RockGrid® KX high-strength geogrid reinforces aggregate layers by improving interlock and load distribution, helping to stabilise working platforms and access roads constructed over challenging ground conditions.

Key Benefits:
• High-strength reinforcement for improved subgrade performance
• Enhances aggregate interlock and load distribution
• Supports more durable working platforms and access roads

HDPE geomembranes play a critical role in containment systems, but they can be vulnerable to puncture from angular materials and mechanical loading.

Kaytech's bidim® range of nonwoven geotextiles provides protective cushioning within geomembrane systems. Heavy-duty grades such as bidim® A8–A15 are designed for applications where increased protection is required, helping to absorb and redistribute loads while reducing the risk of liner damage.

Key Benefits:
• Helps protect geomembranes from puncture damage
• Cushions against angular subgrades and fill materials
• Supports long-term containment performance

Contact our team to learn more about our geomembrane protection solutions.

Soft subgrades can create challenges during road and platform construction, leading to aggregate loss, rutting, and reduced pavement performance.

Kaytech's bidim® nonwoven geotextile provides separation and filtration between the subgrade and aggregate layers, helping prevent soil migration while allowing water to drain through the system.

Key Benefits:
• Helps prevent subgrade and aggregate intermixing
• Supports long-term pavement performance
• Provides durable protection during construction activities
