BERA Gravel Fix® tested in Antartica

Extreme Testing for Ultimate Durability

To ensure maximum durability and effectiveness, BERA Gravel Fix® sheets underwent rigorous testing in one of the harshest environments on Earth. This innovative gravel stabilization system was put to the test at the J.G. Mendel Research Station in Antarctica, in collaboration with Czech scientists.

Challenging Conditions

• Location: J.G. Mendel Research Station, Antarctica

• Temperature: As low as -35°C

• Duration: 13 months

• Environmental Factors: Water, ice, intense UV radiation, gusty winds, and other harsh conditions

Deployed at the Antarctic station, BERA Gravel Fix® fortified the pavement between technical containers, demonstrating resilience against the extreme conditions. After 13 months of rigorous testing, the results are in, showcasing the system’s remarkable durability and effectiveness.

The success of this multi-year test has earned BERA Gravel Fix® the prestigious 'Tested in Antarctica' trademark, a testament to its superior performance in one of the world's most challenging environments. This accolade reinforces its value, as the system has already proven effective in over 45 countries over the past 15 years.
