GEEG (Geotechnical and Environmental Engineering Group) is a Startup Company of “Sapienza” University of Rome. The company aims to actively contribute to the scientific progress in the world of tunnels and underground excavation by developing innovative experimental procedures, to verify the properties of materials and chemical products, to monitor the technical performances, and reduce the environmental impact of the works.

GEEG is a reference structure on the experimental tests on materials and products, on the chemical treatment of soil, on the environmental studies, and in the monitoring activities in the world of tunneling.

GEEG and B2E jointly developed a Research activity to verify the effectiveness of the use of Porous Alpha material to modify the consistency of the debris generated from the excavation of soils and rocks replacing chemical additives and enhancing the reuse of these natural materials in a virtuous process of the circular economy.

The Research activities include experimental tests performed in the geotechnical laboratories of the Sapienza University of Rome specifically equipped to test the materials in conditions very similar to the real on-site ones.
