Transforming Construction with Innovative Geotechnical Solutions
Strata Geosystems has emerged as a global leader in geosynthetics and soil reinforcement technologies. The company’s core competency lies in manufacturing and implementing sustainable geosynthetic solutions that are revolutionizing construction practices in sectors such as highways, railways, ports, landfills, container yards, mining, and environmental protection.
With a firm belief in building a future-ready infrastructure ecosystem, Strata’s emphasis on durable, low-carbon, and cost-effective technologies positions it as a leader in sustainable development. Guided by the strategic vision of Mr. Gautam Dalmia, the company continues to uphold a reputation for engineering excellence, world-class manufacturing, and solution-driven innovation—advancing infrastructure development both in India and across the globe.
A Landmark Year of Strategic Growth and Expansion
The last financial year marked a major turning point in Strata’s journey. In a significant strategic move, Strata completed a majority stake acquisition by global private equity giant Carlyle. This partnership will bolster Strata’s growth ambitions and enhance its global reach while further strengthening its governance, operational scale, and technological depth.
Mr. Gautam Dalmia emphasized that this transaction has infused fresh momentum into the company’s expansion plans. “With Carlyle on board, we are entering an exciting phase of accelerated growth. Our teams are aligned, our vision is clear, and we are fully focused on scaling up with precision and innovation,” he said.
Turnkey Engineering and Customized Solutions: Strata’s Signature Approach
Strata’s engineering-led business model is deeply rooted in delivering turnkey infrastructure solutions. Rather than functioning as a commodity manufacturer, Strata offers end-to-end services — from conceptualization, product customization, design support, to execution. “Our solutions are crafted around the needs of engineers, contractors, and developers. We provide complete peace of mind, ensuring structural integrity and long-term durability,” shared Mr. Dalmia.
With a robust team of IIT-trained MTech engineers, Strata’s technical experts design tailored geosynthetic structures that suit a range of site conditions including coastal regions, mountainous terrains, and challenging soil profiles. Strata’s integrated value chain — from R&D design engineering to on-site construction – has made it the preferred partner for high-performance infrastructure solutions.
Innovation at the Core of Strata’s Product Portfolio
Innovation lies at Strata’s approach. A key highlight is the development and large-scale manufacturing of Geocells in India—making Strata a pioneer in introducing this versatile soil stabilization and reinforcement solution to the Indian infrastructure sector. Today, Geocells are widely applied in railways, bridge transitions, and load support systems. A major milestone was recently achieved when the Indian Railways, through RDSO, codified Geocell applications—driven largely by Strata’s multi-year R&D efforts.
In addition, Strata has also advanced the use of Geogrids in pavement design and is currently developing a specialized ground improvement solution for regions with weak soils. These innovations reflect Strata’s commitment to solving market-specific challenges with engineering-led, application-specific technologies.
Expanding Global Presence and State-of-the-Art Manufacturing
Strata’s state-of-the-art manufacturing infrastructure in Gujarat is one of the largest geosynthetic facilities. Spanning over 320,000 square feet of built-up area and is currently undergoing a major expansion to double its size and production capacity. The facility currently manufactures approx. 65 million square meters of geogrids annually, a figure that is set to double in the next 18 months. The company also operates additional manufacturing locations, with a clear focus on maintaining the highest standards of quality, precision, and performance.
The global footprint of Strata continues to expand, with a strong presence in North America and growing engagements across Europe, Asia, and other emerging markets. “As India’s infrastructure sector matures and global demand rises, we are ideally positioned to address the growing need for high-performance geotechnical solutions,” said Mr. Dalmia.
Sustainability and Green Manufacturing at the Forefront
Sustainability remains a central pillar of Strata’s operations. The company’s geosynthetic products significantly reduce the consumption of natural resources, supporting eco-friendly construction practices. From reducing aggregate requirements in road construction to minimizing land disturbance in landfills and erosion-prone zones, Strata’s technologies align closely with global green mandates.
On the manufacturing front, Strata has adopted clean energy and environmentally responsible production practices. Its coating process is fully water-based — a rare achievement in the sector — eliminating solvent use and enabling near-zero emissions. The company also harnesses solar energy and recycles nearly all industrial waste, making its manufacturing footprint one of the most sustainable in the industry.
“We are proud to be the only company in India using a water-based coating for our geosynthetic products,” noted Mr. Dalmia. “This reflects our strong internal culture of sustainability and our drive to be ahead of the curve, both technologically and environmentally.”
Unwavering Commitment to Quality and Reliability
Strata’s commitment to product quality is uncompromising. Every batch of material undergoes rigorous testing, aligned with ASTM and global standards. Its in-house lab conducts hundreds of tests daily, ensuring precise tensile strengths and consistent performance across all the products. “What we promise is what we deliver — or better. This philosophy is what differentiates Strata from other players in the sector,” emphasized Mr. Dalmia.
This relentless focus on quality and reliability has positioned Strata as the trusted partner for world’s most demanding infrastructure projects. Strata’s products are carefully engineered for superior strength, providing engineers and developers with long-term assurance and peace of mind.
Backed by Global Expertise, Focused on Future Innovation
Strata’s strategic partnership with The Carlyle Group has added a dynamic new dimension to its growth strategy. While Carlyle brings in global expertise in capital, governance, and scalable growth, Strata will continue to focus on its core strengths — world-class engineering, cutting-edge product innovation, and customer-centric development.
With an ambitious revenue target of over ₹1000 crore for FY26 and consistent record of over 25% year-on-year growth, Strata is setting new benchmarks in the geosynthetic industry. Significant investments are currently underway in capacity expansion, driving automation, and accelerating new product development – all aimed at powering the next phase of innovation – led growth.
Vision 2025 and Beyond: Building the Future of Infrastructure
Driven by its long-term vision, Strata aims to deepen its expertise in high-growth areas such as ground improvement, environmental applications, and pavement reinforcement. The company plans to introduce new specialized products and expand its turnkey solutions portfolio across geographies.
“Our aim is to lead with integrity, innovate with purpose, and grow with sustainability at our core,” concluded Mr. Gautam Dalmia. “Strata is more than a company — it’s a platform for driving infrastructure transformation across the world.”
With its strong foundation, visionary leadership, and commitment to excellence, Strata Geosystems is well on its way to redefining geotechnical engineering — one layer at a time.
