Contact usWhat Are Screw Piles?
Postech Screw Piles, also known as helical piers, are steel pipe foundations with helical plates on a central shaft, allowing them to be easily driven into the ground with quiet, lightweight hydraulic machinery. This method requires no excavation, concrete, or heavy equipment, making installation efficient, often taking only a few hours in any weather or soil conditions.
Why Choose Screw Piles?
Screw piles offer several advantages over traditional foundations: they’re installed quickly with minimal soil disruption, environmentally friendly, and adaptable to diverse project needs. Their efficient process supports immediate construction, reduces impact, and offers custom options for unique projects. Additionally, screw piles are removable, reusable, and highly durable.
Ideal Projects for Screw Piles
Due to their strength, stability, and ease of installation, screw piles are ideal for a wide range of applications, from residential projects like homes and decks to commercial projects, including solar panel arrays and modular buildings. Their durable design ensures lasting performance across various project types and environments.
