CONT

Soil confinement systems based on cellular geotextile nets ... were first developed and evaluated by the Laboratory Régional des Ponts et Chaussées in France during 1980 and subsequently marketed under the tradename "Armater". These cellular nets are formed by welding strips of geotextile together at regular intervals so that when the strips are fully stretched open they form a honeycomb net about 200 mm deep with either hexagonal or diamond shaped apertures. The main application for the original Armater system is the control of rainfall erosion.
