Flex MSE^® Vegetated Wall System

Flex MSE® is a Patented engineered solution for vegetated retaining walls, slope stability, soil retention and erosion control.

The Flex MSE Vegetated Wall System is the ideal solution for walls and slopes where a natural ‘green’ solution is desired. It is the only system on the market that can deliver both environmental protection and restoration.

Flex MSE Bags and Interlocking Plates are used to build naturally resilient Geomodular structures. A unique soft building material which exhibits hard material qualities, Flex MSE adapts to events that would ruin lesser systems, and only gets stronger and greener as time goes on. Flex MSE is an innovative system which leverages Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) principles along with geotextile technology to create strong and easy to install structures.

How It Works

Flex MSE uses a nonwoven polypropylene Bag which is the ideal planter block for permanent vegetation. It is filled with a specific engineered medium formulated to provide superior structural integrity, effective drainage, and optimal root development.

The second key component is a patented interlocking plate which provides a positive mechanical connection between each bag, creating a running bond throughout the structure for enhanced stability and performance.

Geogrids integrated into the backfill zone function as essential soil reinforcement elements in the Flex MSE system. These horizontal geogrid layers impart tensile strength, enabling the reinforced soil to act cohesively as a single structural mass. Additionally, the geogrid connects securely to the bag units via Geogrid Hooks positioned on top of the interlocking plates.

Design Options

Flex MSE can be engineered to accommodate a wide range of configurations and applications.
