Geocells
Cellular Confinement Systems for Soil Stabilization, Load Support, Slope Protection, and Erosion Control
Geocell Systems for Stabilization, Reinforcement, and Erosion Control
Geocells turn ordinary fill material into a high-performance structural surface. By confining soil, aggregate, or concrete within a three-dimensional honeycomb grid, geocell systems dramatically improve load distribution, prevent fill migration, and protect slopes and channels from the forces that unconfined fill cannot handle. GETSCO carries TYPAR Geocell and HDPE Geocell systems. Talk to our Geo Product Specialists to get the right one specified for your job.
HDPE Geocell
Cellular Confinement for Slopes and Roads
Made from strips of welded high-density polyethylene that expand into a three-dimensional honeycomb grid on site, HDPE Geocells transform ordinary soil and aggregate into a structurally reinforced surface capable of handling the demands of unpaved roads, eroding slopes, high-flow channels, and retaining wall applications. The cellular structure confines fill material within each cell, preventing lateral migration and dramatically improving the load-bearing and erosion resistance of the surface above.
HDPE Geocells are a practical, cost-effective alternative to more labor-intensive stabilization methods on sites where soil conditions, slope geometry, or hydraulic forces exceed what unconfined fill can manage. The welded HDPE construction delivers long-term durability and chemical resistance in buried and exposed applications, while the expandable panel format makes transport and installation efficient even on large-scale projects.
GETSCO carries HDPE Geocell systems for contractors and engineers working on soil stabilization, slope protection, channel lining, and retaining wall applications. Our Geo Product Specialists can help you confirm the right geocell configuration for your design requirements and site conditions.
One System. Four Critical Applications.
- Soil stabilization of unpaved roadways and construction access routes under repeated traffic loading
- Slope erosion control on cut and fill slopes where unconfined soil would migrate under rainfall and runoff
- Channel protection in drainage swales and outlets subject to hydraulic shear and flow velocity
- Retaining wall applications requiring a flexible, durable structural confinement system
- Welded HDPE strips form a consistent honeycomb grid that maintains cell geometry under load
- Fill material confined within cells resists lateral migration under static and dynamic loading
- Durable HDPE construction resists UV exposure, chemical degradation, and long-term environmental stress
- Expandable panel format simplifies transport, handling, and installation on large-scale projects

TYPAR Geocell
Permeable Cellular Confinement for Stabilization
Built on the proven strength and permeability of TYPAR Geotextiles, the TYPAR Geocell cellular confinement system creates a three-dimensional honeycomb structure that combines structural performance with vegetation-friendly permeability. Manufactured from dark grey PP/PE bicomponent fiber geotextile, the cell walls allow water, air, and nutrients to pass freely through the system, increasing both ground stability and vegetative performance in applications where a living surface is part of the design.
The TYPAR Geocell ships in a compacted panel form and expands on site into a honeycomb formation that can be shaped and dimensioned to match the application. The lightweight, flexible construction conforms naturally to surface variations and uneven terrain, making installation significantly faster and easier than rigid confinement alternatives while still delivering consistent structural performance and impact resistance across the full panel.
GETSCO carries TYPAR Geocell for slope protection, channel lining, load support, and ground stabilization applications. Our Geo Product Specialists can help you confirm the right geocell system for your design requirements and site conditions.
