GB-Granules

Engineers reviewing plans on a construction site

GB-Granules is a high-quality granular activated bentonite developed specifically for the construction industry. Due to its high ability to swell and form a dense protective layer, the product provides reliable protection of building structures against water penetration, stabilises soils and prevents landslides and deformations. It is ideal for waterproofing foundations, underground structures, tunnels and other construction projects.

Questions about this product

What is GB-Granules?

GB-Granules is granular activated bentonite from GEOBENT for waterproofing, barriers and soil stabilisation. The product page lists foundations, underground structures and tunnels.

What does the GEOBENT data sheet say about GB-Granules?

The GB-Granules table on the product page lists montmorillonite 65–85%, moisture 10–14%, fraction 0.1–5.0 mm, free swelling index min. 25 mm/2 g, filtrate volume max 18 ml, pH 10, methylene blue adsorption min. 400 mg/g and water absorption min. 600%. These are the values on the GEOBENT product page.

How is bentonite granule used for sealing in the industry?

Typical approaches are placing dry bentonite granule as a barrier that swells when wetted and tightens the joint, and using it around foundations and in ground barriers. Industry publications often cite roughly 5–15 kg/m² for soil sealing, higher on permeable ground. These are typical industry recommendations, not a GEOBENT guarantee. The choice depends on the conditions — contact GEOBENT and we will prepare a recommendation and a free sample. This is not a GB-Granules dose set by GEOBENT.

How does GEOBENT pack GB-Granules?

The GB-Granules page lists 25 kg bags or 1 t big-bags. GEOBENT also ships bentonite in bulk. Delivery: Europe and export. The minimum order is one full truck.
