Use HDPE Geocell to protect the slope of shrimp pond
I receive an inquiry from an old customer in the year 2019. They want to use our HDPE Geocell to protect the slope of their shrimp pond.
Dear Claire,
Besides drainage system, we are now studying to use geocell for slope protection. Please find attached files some photo of shrimp pond.
In below picture, blue line is current ground level. Red line is new road design with slope 1/1.5. The water in shrimp pump is just up and down, with flow velocities almost zero. However, we are afraid of erosion, sliding of slope, rains…. can progressively erode the slope. Please advise us on this matter. Should we use or not?
In your experiences, how length is the slope should we use Geocell.
Thank you.

Dear Sir,
Yes, the widest application for Geocell is slope protection. And I checked your attached photos carefully, it is suitable to apply Geocell on shrimp pond slope.
According to your slope ratio 1:1.5, Geocell height of 100mm is suitable, and we recommend welding distance 445mm or 660mm, both are suitable.
One of our customers in Vietnam did the same project last year, they use our HF100-660-1.5(height 100mm, welding distance 660mm, textured 1.5mm) on their pond, please check their construction photos in the attachment.
