Grid-GuardHD PLUS
Next Generation Rockshield Protection
Engineered for pipeline crews who need maximum coating protection, faster installs, and reliable performance in all conditions.
Perfect for Rocky backfill, HDD crossings, pull-throughs, and integrity-sensitive pipeline installs.

GridGuard HD Plus combines a high-strength HDPE mesh with a bonded geotextile backing to deliver superior impact resistance and consistent load distribution in aggressive backfill environments.

KEY ADVANTAGES
Grid-GuardHD PLUS
~30% more impact protection vs standard mesh systems
Geotextile backing eliminates voids and reduces rock point-loading
Superior abrasion resistance for high-value coatings (FBE, ARO, etc.)
Permiable design maintains cathodic protection performance
Flexible in extreme cold down to -40°
Lightweight rolls for faster, easier installation

Consistently Outperforms the Competition
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
