Market Report, January 2007, 3440  €


Description

This study covers the US geosynthetics industry, defined here as a group of products made primarily from man-made materials that are used in a variety of geotechnical structures and systems.
These products include nonwoven and woven/knit geotextiles, geomembranes, geonets, geogrids and others (e.g., geocells, geofoam, geosynthetic clay liners and preformed geocomposites).
Plastic geopipes are not included in this study.
In addition, the study discusses construction, environmental, regulatory and other market environment factors.
