Manufacturer of geosynthetics including geocomposites, geotextiles and geocells for the construction industry, Terram said it is experiencing a growing demand for several of its market leading products from Network Rail.

“Demand for Hydrotex, PW1 and PW9 geosynthetic products are particularly high, as Network Rail continues to deliver over 280 km of track renewals each year,” a Terram press release stated.

“The work covers the whole of England, Scotland and Wales, at a cost of an estimated £255 million per annum,” the company added.

Easy to use, Hydrotex, PW1 and PW9 have reduced time spent carrying out the works due to enhanced efficiencies with excavation, including the replacement of the traditional sand blanket.

Ben Brown, application and sales engineer for EMEA at Terram said, “At Terram, we pride ourselves on driving innovation, creating products that deliver extra stability and better site drainage.”

“This results in less maintenance work being required in the long term, as well as added value in cost benefits,” Brown too added.

“Due to the high quality of our products and level of our service, we are ideally positioned to serve our rail customers to ensure that they meet the demands of the industry,” he informed.

Brown further added that they have received very positive feedback from Network Rail and their team continues to deliver and meet requirements.
