EnviroGrid® EGA 30 is a three-dimensional cellular confinement system that provides confinement and reinforcement to granular material for
load support erosion control, slope protection and retaining wall applications.

EnviroGrid® EGA 30 sections are manufactured from 58 strips of HDPE, resulting in a section length of 29 cells. Each strip is the approved width and 142 inches (3.6m) in length.

(1) A 4" (100mm) wide seam sample shall support a 160lb (72.5kg)load for a period of 7 days minimum in a temperature-controlled environment undergoing a temperature change on a 10 hour cycle from ambient room to 130°F (54°C). Ambient room temperature per ASTM E 41.
(2) Junction efficiency determined as a percentage of junction performance (EN ISO 13426-1) to perforated strip performance (EN ISO 10319).
(3) Value for clean granular infill material.
(4) Standard black HDPE strips. For tan/green EnviroGrid®, hindered amine light stabilizer (HALS) content will be 2.0% by weight of carrier.
(5) Predicted to be durable for a minimum of 100 years in natural soil with a pH between 4 and 9 and at soil temperature <25°C. Testing was conducted at 100°C.
(6)100% of original tensile strength retained following exposure to intense UV radiation and accelerated weathering in accordance with EN 12224.
