EQ-GRID® Seismic Technology for Securing Existing Buildings in Martinique
In seismic zones, securing existing buildings is a major challenge to protect people, ensure business continuity, and preserve the built heritage. To address this urgent need, SIL’H2O deploys the EQ-GRID® system, a next-generation seismic strengthening technology developed in Germany and already proven in several earthquake-prone countries, including Italy, Spain, Turkey, and Switzerland.
The EQ-GRID® system is based on the application of a technical coating composed of:
- a quadri-axial high-strength fiber mesh
- a flexible, highly adhesive rendering layer
By acting as a protective “skin” applied to masonry walls, the system significantly reduces cracking, prevents falling debris (plaster, rubble), and helps mitigate the risk of partial collapse.
Unlike traditional localized strengthening methods, EQ-GRID® works globally across the entire structure while remaining compatible with lightweight interventions on existing buildings. This approach is particularly well suited to older constructions in the Caribbean.
For optimal seismic strengthening of structures and buildings, SIL'H20 have the solution !

A fast-to-install Seismic Strengthening System with no Compromise for your Rehabilitation Projects
Optimize the resilience of your property with a proven seismic solution used internationally and adapted to the realities of the Caribbean. Our EQ-GRID® system has been designed to meet the constraints of rehabilitation projects: fast, non-intrusive installation in occupied buildings, respect for the existing architecture, and cost control.
Our approach is based on a comprehensive structural assessment, completed by a technical study and validation by a design office, ensuring the relevance of the implemented solutions. Interventions include the repair of deteriorated concrete, crack treatment, strengthening of load-bearing structures, and localized reinforcement, depending on the specific needs of each structure.
The EQ-GRID® system is suitable for many types of buildings, including administrative, educational, residential, commercial, heritage, and public facilities.
SIL’H20 provides a cost-effective and high-performance alternative for the long-term seismic safety of buildings in Martinique.
