The New Modular Backfill Support System

Stitch Wise can lay claim to a new innovation in underground support systems.  The new Modular system is a further advancement of our current backfill range. Stitch Wise has now installed steel reinforcement into some of the bags which applies reinforced earth principles and increases the load capabilities beyond most current support systems.

The placement of the steel is calculated scientifically.  Stitch Wise has written a white paper on this new support which we will mail to you on request.  See "contact us"
