Replacing traditional construction materials by Geosynthetics is the right thing to do. Both, for the environment as well as from a cost point of view. To ensure that the use of Geosynthetics becomes the standard in the industry is the objective of the EAGM. This is what we as EAGM and the board are striving for.

The use of geosynthetics show significant success in the reduction of carbon footprints in construction. On top of this, geosynthetic solutions have proven to be a cost effective replacement of ''conservative'' solutions. This is a message which we, as EAGM, want to spread.

When the industry speaks with a single voice, all the other stakeholders must hear and take it into account. Some actions and statements are much more efficient when coming from an association and make at the same time the interest of the consumers, promoting fair competition and transparent information on the market.
