The key benefits of soil stabilization

Bearing capacity

Soil stabilization with lime or cement results in an immediate improvement of the soil’s mechanical properties, increasing its bearing capacity at the same time.

Optimum moisture content

Mixing binding agents into the existing soil achieves an optimum water content. Soils that were muddy and wet before soil stabilization are now much better suited for placing and compacting. The improved soil consistency additionally facilitates levelling.

Environmental friendliness

Soil stabilization is an environmentally friendly method, since it requires significantly less transports when compared to soil exchange, while saving precious natural resources at the same time.

Weather resistance

Soil stabilization results in an improvement of the soil’s bearing capacity both in the short and in the long term, making it resistant against water and frost.

Homogeneous mix

Soils from many different sources are often transported to one job site. Soil stabilizers produce a homogeneous mix from these soils of different origins.
