Hotels and acoustic comfort
Acoustic well-being is a must in hotels. In the competitive hospitality industry, guest satisfaction hinges on details—especially peace and quiet. Yet, hotels, resorts, and high-traffic spaces often grapple with noise complaints: clattering footsteps in hallways, chair scrapes in dining areas, and echoes in lobbies. These disturbances don’t just irritate guests—they damage reviews and repeat business. From luxury

Ground reinforcement and stabilization with TeMa geogrids as part of foundation groundworks
Foundation base reinforcement for the construction of rigid reinforced concrete structures on unstable areas: a challenge for engineers across the globe. Sure enough, designers find themselves having to contend with the risk of differential foundation settlement, which can result in cracks in the structure. This means any unsound material in the area often has to

Damp, rising damp and efflorescence in basements.
Damp, mould, stains and flaky plaster in basements are a homeowner’s worst nightmare. We’ve mentioned numerous times that weather events and groundwater, where not controlled properly, are the main cause of damp. Of course, it doesn’t just affect the walls, but the whole structure, including flooring, on the basement level or even on the ground

System for reinforced soil retaining structures
T-System is the system from TeMa Geo Solutions that includes various components for strengthening, surface erosion control, drainage and retaining used in the construction of reinforced soil retaining structures: innovation that we’ve been exploring here at TeMa since our inception 30 years ago, and that is now one of our hallmarks. Let’s take a more
Solutions for protecting foundations and below-grade walls
The health of walls in contact with the soil — like foundations and below-grade walls — is the primary concern of the home’s occupants, especially where underground garages or basements are involved: any sign of damp or mould is evidence of damage that can have serious financial consequences in these areas of the building. And
