The technology is used for coastal and port protection projects – in a simple and environmentally friendly way
Tencate Geotube® is a durable and a proven solution for shoreline and sea protection and widely used in marine and hydraulic engineering, such as breakwaters, dykes and marine spill containment structures. Once the Geotube® bag is in place, the solution provides years of sustained performance to protect coastlines, rebuild beaches or reclaim land.
As the only distributor in Denmark, Envidan offers the original Tencate Geotube®, which is a technology suited for several different coastal protection projects.
Lining
Coastal revetments can be eroded by wave action. TenCate Geotubes® can be used for a range of coastal erosion solutions that also improve access to public facilities, as well as protect facilities and properties
Dykes
Dykes are often constructed to allow construction to take place under more suitable conditions. TenCate Geotubes® are widely used for this, either as the primary solution or as the core of a rock structure.
Piers
Groynes regulate the lateral movement of sand along beaches, reducing erosion and retaining sand in specific locations. TenCate Geotubes® are widely used as piling for this purpose, improving access to publicly accessible facilities such as beaches and piers.
Breakwaters
Breakwaters reduce the energy of the wave before the waves reach the shore, thus reducing the erosive forces on the beach. TenCate Geotubes® are used worldwide for this purpose as it requires very high quality geotextiles. Here, material quality and safety go hand in hand.
Offshore structures
As a market leader, TenCate Geotubes® provide a comprehensive range of marine geotextiles and Geotubes® to reduce and control erosion around offshore structures such as bridges, pipelines or wind turbines.
How TenCate GeoTube® works
TenCate Geotube® is used in 3 phases in coastal protection
Industrial PhD on the future of water quality monitoring
Industrial PhD uses Machine Learning to generate new ideas and knowledge on the future use of sensor data for monitoring water quality in Danish watercourses.
Wetland project at Gørup Enge benefits water quality in the Limfjord
Wetland project for Viborg Municipality that reduces the discharge of nitrogen to the Limfjord.
Slurry and sludge dewatering with TenCate Geotube
Kongeåens Dambrug ApS has been assisted in dewatering slurry and sludge from the farms' production of freshwater trout by means of a new technology. TenCate Geotubes®.
Recycling of sediment and sludge from Ishøj Lake with TenCate Geotube
With the bags from TenCate GeoTubes, sediment has been recycled in Ishøj.
