Adequate infrastructure and processes are necessary for the treatment and disposal of waste.

Geoquest offers solutions that will help you to build cost effective, reliable and durable infrastructure allowing you to optimize your waste treatment processes and disposal operations.

Waste landfills and tailings dams

The original Reinforced Earth® solution is widely used for the construction of permanent and temporary vertical mechanically stabilized earth walls. The design can be adapted to include galvanized steel or geosynthetic reinforcements connected to concrete facing panels. We also offer metallic facing retaining walls such as Terratrel®, Geotrel® and TerraMet®.

Waste containment and dewatering

Geoquest offers solutions for the containment of industrial waste such as fly ash or residual muds. Our TerraDyke™ geotextile tubes, woven geotextile containers are widely used as part of the industrial waste treatment and containment waste.

TerraDyke™ can be used to dewater residual muds, sludge and dredged materials. The geotextile tube contains and squeezes the materials under the effect of gravity allowing water to exit through the geotextile’s stitches, leaving the waste contained and ready to be disposed.

Ponds and wastewater sludge lagoons

Geoquest’s geosynthetic clay liners and non-woven geotextiles are widely used for the construction of waterproof ponds, storage basins, and wastewater sludge lagoons. Our engineered lining solutions have proven to be safe and durable, securing ponds from any rupture and protecting the underlying soils and underground waters from contamination.

“I have worked with Geoquest on two previous projects and both times have exceeded my expectation. I find the product easy to work with, quick for construction and a good final product, looking the part. There is a good turn around time from the Geoquest team and always have answered any queries I have had. I would definitely use them again.”

Patrick Goodwin, Section Engineer, Graham Construction

“Excellent Service, system and simple to build – would always recommend”

J Millar, Project Manager, Osborne Infrastructure

“The design and materials supplied by Geoquest for the new Velindre Cancer Centre bridge was excellent, providing a high-quality product at a competitive price. The technical assistance with both the design and installation was highly commendable leading to a very high standard structure upon completion.

We would thoroughly recommend Geoquest for any retained earth projects and will recommend early engagement on future projects to utilise their vast technical knowledge for value engineering.”

Tom Morris, Project Manager, Walters

“Having used Geoquest for the provision of a reinforced earth wall system on a new highway scheme I found them to be very helpful and easy to work with in the run up to construction and also throughout the construction. The quality of the final product was very good and looks well now that the work is complete and open to traffic.”

Dave Mantle, Senior Site Manager, Octavius

“Osborne Infrastructure selected Geoquest due to their reputation and expertise. They delivered on both. They provided both the design and the fabrication of the reinforced earth abutments for the M27 Romsey Road bridge on time and within budget. Design changes due to unforeseen site conditions were dealt with efficiently with expert advice on hand to ensure we produced the right solution for our client Highways England.

I would be more than happy to recommend Geoquest and would make them my go to specialist for this type of work.”

M Whale, Senior Site Manager, Osborne Infrastructure
