Geoballast Foundation

The Geoballast foundation is ideal for landfills and brownfields. It is the only concrete-free ballast foundation on the market. Our goal was to take the idea of a standard gabion basket and engineer it to excel as a ballast solution. The galvanized steel wire box comes shipped to your site over 70% pre-assembled and utilizes local quarry rock as fill. They are easy to stage, assemble and string line. The Geoballast foundation uses the Ready Rack, 2-High in portrait racking system and has telescoping posts for adjustment on undulating topography.
