EPS Geofoam is increasingly used in landfill construction for slope stabilization, settlement control, and as a lightweight fill material in challenging terrain. Compared to traditional soil or aggregate fill, EPS Geofoam reduces the weight burden on underlying waste or unstable soils—helping prevent dangerous shifting, slippage, or uneven settling.
Its consistent density and load-bearing properties allow engineers to precisely manage vertical and lateral pressure in landfill caps and perimeter berms. Whether reinforcing steep slopes or building access roads over waste cells, EPS Geofoam is a trusted, engineered solution for long-term performance and safety.
Geofoam plays a critical role in landfill cap systems, offering an ideal sub-base layer beneath geomembranes and vegetative caps. Its lightweight nature helps preserve the integrity of waste containment systems by minimizing stress on liner materials.
Additionally, EPS Geofoam can be used to build elevated access roads, maintenance paths, and service platforms over soft or unstable landfill surfaces—eliminating the need for heavy earthmoving while improving site accessibility. Its durability, moisture resistance, and ease of installation make it a go-to solution for landfill engineers seeking faster, safer, and more predictable results.
