Soil Stabilization Products
Stabilize Shorelines Against Wave Action, Surface Flow, and Erosion
The GEOWEB® Shoreline Protection System offers a proven solution for protecting shorelines and containment berms from erosion caused by water contact, wave impact, and surface runoff. The 3D cellular structure confines infill, prevents displacement, and reinforces the soil structure, delivering effective protection along lakefronts, rivers, stormwater basins, and industrial water containment sites.
Designed to work in soft soils, the GEOWEB system reduces the need for heavy rip-rap or concrete revetments and can be used over geomembranes without risk of damage or puncture.
Key Benefits
- Controls erosion from wave action and runoff
- Reduces the need for large stone or concrete structures
- Allows use of smaller rock, soil, or vegetated infill
- Protects underlying geomembranes from puncture and uplift
- Accommodates sustainable vegetation for natural integration
- Installs with minimal equipment and disturbance
- Long-lasting HDPE material resists UV, water, and chemical exposure
Infill Options for Shoreline Projects
- Vegetated infill: Ideal for shorelines requiring a green, natural finish
- Aggregate infill: Suitable for moderate wave and flow exposure
- Concrete infill: Provides hard-armored protection for high-energy zones
- Geomembrane protection: Protects the liner with confined fill and prevents wind uplift or damage
How the GEOWEB System Works for Shoreline Protection
The GEOWEB system forms a honeycomb-like matrix that confines aggregate, soil, or concrete within each cell. This cellular confinement prevents erosion by minimizing movement from waves and flowing water, while providing a stable structure that adapts to uneven ground and changing water levels.
For added protection in sensitive areas, GEOWEB can be used with engineered anchors and tendon systems. It is especially effective when installed over geomembranes, where traditional protection methods are too heavy or risk damage to the liner.
