committed to sustainability through geosynthetics
Layfield is dedicated to advancing sustainability through geosynthetics, which help
enhance infrastructure, extend road life, conserve water, control erosion, and reduce
land disturbance. In the geosynthetic industry, sustainability means meeting present
needs without compromising future generations by minimizing environmental impact,
optimizing resources, and promoting social responsibility. Protecting the environment
is at Layfield’s core, driving the development of innovative products to support
communities and future generations.
Reducing Aggregates and CO2 Emissions Using Soil Reinforcement Products
We are committed to developing and promoting soil reinforcement products that significantly reduce the need for natural aggregates and lower CO2 emissions. By enhancing foundation stability and strength, our products contribute to more sustainable construction practices and reduce the carbon footprint of infrastructure projects.
Enhancing the Use of HydraNet™
with a Focus on Incorporating
25% Recycled Material
We commit to increasing the use of our HydraNet™ products, ensuring that we have the capability of including at least 25% recycled materials as inputs. This initiative supports resource conservation, reduces waste, and demonstrates our dedication to incorporating recycled materials into our product lines without compromising quality or performance.
Implementing Operation Clean Sweep™
We are dedicated to implementing Operation Clean Sweep™, an international program designed to prevent resin pellet, flake, and powder loss, thereby protecting the environment and enhancing workplace safety. This initiative reflects our commitment to zero pellet loss and contributes to cleaner manufacturing facilities and surroundings.
Utilizing LID Products for Reducing Greenhouse Gases
Urban development often leads to increased stormwater runoff, which causes flooding, pollution, and erosion. We aim to use Low Impact Development (LID) to address these challenges by replacing traditional concrete and asphalt with permeable surfaces and incorporating vegetation to reduce erosion and heat. This approach not only manages runoff but also enhances the natural beauty of urban spaces.
At Layfield, we are committed to providing LID solutions that improve urban environments. Our offerings include porous pavers for pathways and parking lots, underground stormwater retention chambers, erosion control products, and geomembrane liners for rain gardens and bioretention areas—all designed to create sustainable, resilient spaces.
Ensuring Our Products Promote
Project Longevity
We are dedicated to designing and manufacturing geosynthetic products that enhance the durability and longevity of infrastructure projects. By providing high-quality, long-lasting solutions, we help reduce the need for frequent repairs and replacements, leading to more sustainable and cost-effective projects over time.
