In 1963, Henri Vidal, a French engineer, developed a new composite material using earth as a raw material.
\nEasy-to-use, the Reinforced Earth\u00ae technology quickly took hold as an ideal reinforced backfill solution, spawning the development of a company with offices across the five continents in just a few decades.
\nToday, Geoquest concentrates an unequalled combination of expertise and accumulated experience in the fields of soil-structure interaction and engineered backfills.
\nOur expansive portfolio of techniques applies to a wide range of structures for an extended array of market segments: roads and motorways, environment, railways, hydraulic works, mining, industry, energy, commercial, housing or military.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>
