Flex MSE Approved as 9m Slope Retention System on BC Ministry of Transportation Recognized Products List
VANCOUVER (July 30, 2024) /Trexiana ~ Flex MSE/ — Flex MSE, the global leader in sustainable geomodular construction, is now approved for use in ‘Slope Retention Systems – up to 9m in Height’ by the British Columbia Ministry of Transportation (BC MoTI).
A slope is defined by BC MoTI as having a maximum angle of 70 degrees. Flex MSE has proven long term success on BC Provincial roadway projects up to 10m in height. Additionally, Flex MSE is the only system on the list to appear in two other categories – Landscaping Walls up to 3m and Erosion Control.
Proudly manufactured by Trexiana Wholesale and Distribution, of Surrey, BC, Flex MSE has 1000’s of projects globally, with continued expansion into South America, Europe, and Oceania.
“We’re really excited at the opportunity afforded to Flex MSE by MoTI. It means we can deliver even bigger savings on legacy costs and embodied carbon to British Columbian infrastructural projects.” said Director of Sustainability and Innovation Dylan Armour. “We can’t wait to see more green, biodiverse Flex MSE public assets.”
Design professionals can get access to Trexiana’s industry-leading technical services program via the Flex MSE website (www.FlexMSE.com), or through their official network of provincial Dealers.
“Flex MSE has been on the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructures (MoTI) Approved Materials list in British Columbia for more than a decade. Our work with Transportation Authorities worldwide, on structures as high as 14m (45ft), gave MoTI the confidence they needed to approve Flex MSE for these critical structures. We believe that Flex MSE provides a much needed option for Slope Retention Systems on BC MoTI projects.” said CEO Gurch Sekhon
