From Yarn to Bridges – Strata Takes Another Giant Leap in Technical Textiles
"We buy yarn and deliver bridges," said Ashok Bhawnani, Founding Director – Strata Geosystems. "Geogrids reinforcing soil is analogous to steel reinforcing concrete and this technology is being used for ramp construction for flyover crossings, landfills, mining dykes and several other engineered structures," added Narendra Dalmia, CEO & Director, Strata Geosystems.
Strata started in India in 2004 for manufacturing technical textiles and within a decade became the largest developer for reinforced soil structures, having built more than 400 bridge ramps on national highways across the country. Today, reinforced soil technology has found acceptance in every corner of the country and has facilitated the requirement for a large-scale manufacturing plant to cater to the growing infrastructure needs in India.
