Coastal and Shoreline erosion along the east coast of Africa has presented major problems for hotel resorts and residents alike. Eroded foundations, collapsing boundary walls and lost property frontage is a continuous event.
Don’t worry, help is here! We partnered with Naue GmbH to bring specialist Geobags right here in Kenya. These systems have been successfully installed around the world. Filled with beach sand, the geobags weigh up to 4.5T and are produced using the latest closing technology, extremely high seam-strengths, and powerfully robust sand-coloured fabric designed to prevent erosion and scour.
Geobags form a stable, durable sand-filled barrier for use in coastal erosion and other dynamic hydraulic applications. Manufactured from sand-coloured nonwoven geotextile designed for filtration, abrasion resistance, puncture & UV characteristics provides maximum durability in harsh environments. Weighing 4.5 tonnes provides the stability required to withstand the impact of high wave energy & storm surges.
Applications include revetments, artificial reefs, scour prevention, groynes, wave-breakers and protection dykes.

Their flexibility and versatility means they can be used in various conditions. Whether the project requires protection to existing structures (such as boundary walls, swimming pool and building foundations, embankments) or proposed new construction, the design can be tailored to ensure the most suited technical solution is reached.
Together with trusted partners, we offer the unique full service of technical design, supply and installation for projects in Kenya.
