STRATA Geosystems Malaysia distributor.
Starwall Sdn Bhd holds the appointed STRATA Geosystems distributorship for Malaysia. Infraconcrete Construction Sdn Bhd is the CIDB G7 installer. The two are sister companies under the same ownership, both part of the Panthera Group. For projects in Malaysia this means a single-point procurement route covering supply (Starwall) plus design support and field installation (Infraconcrete) under one accountability chain. STRATA Geosystems (strataglobal.com) is one of the world's largest geosynthetics manufacturers, ISO 9001:2015 certified, with approximately 65 million m² of StrataGrid PET geogrid installed across 50+ countries.
Sister companies, one ownership, one accountability.
Starwall Sdn Bhd is the appointed STRATA Geosystems distributor for Malaysia. Starwall handles the STRATA supply chain: material orders, logistics, factory liaison with STRATA Geosystems, manufacturer certificates of conformance, batch traceability, technical datasheets, and project-specific stock holding. Starwall maintains the formal distributor relationship with STRATA.
Infraconcrete Construction Sdn Bhd is the CIDB G7 installer, ISO 9001:2015 quality system. Infraconcrete provides the design support to consulting engineers (BS 8006, FHWA-NHI-10-024, AASHTO LRFD, NCMA SRW design coordination), in-house installation crews (no subcontracting on the specialist scope), and project execution (site mobilisation, supervision, documentation, handover).
Both companies sit under the same ownership and parent group, Panthera Group. The two operate as a coordinated group: Starwall on the procurement and supply side, Infraconcrete on the engineering and execution side. For project owners and consulting engineers, the result is single-point procurement covering both the material and the workmanship, with one accountability chain.
For projects that prefer supply-only (with installation tendered separately) or installation-only (where material is procured by another contractor through Starwall), both routes are workable. We route accordingly at brief stage based on the project's procurement model.
One of the world's largest geosynthetics manufacturers.
STRATA Geosystems is an international geosynthetics manufacturer with operations across Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and the Americas. Manufacturing is ISO 9001:2015 certified. Globally, approximately 65 million m² of StrataGrid uniaxial PET geogrid is installed across 50+ countries, in applications including MSE walls and reinforced soil slopes for federal highway and rail infrastructure, basal reinforcement on soft ground for port reclamation, and base reinforcement on plantation and mining haul roads.
STRATA's product range covers all five geosynthetic categories under recognisable brand names:

| STRATA Nonwoven | Geotextile (nonwoven) | PP | Separation, filtration, drainage, protection |
| StrataWeb | Geocell | HDPE | Slope facing, channel lining, load support, gravity wall |
| StrataDrain | Geocomposite drainage | HDPE + PP | Behind retaining walls, basements, landfill drainage |
| StrataBlock | Facing system | Concrete + PET geogrid | Modular segmental MSE wall facing |

| Sleeve-It | Specialty post anchoring | HDPE / steel | Fence post, signage in reinforced backfill at top of MSE / segmental walls |
Datasheets for each product line are available on request, with project-specific declared values per ISO 13431 and the relevant ASTM / ISO test methods.

ReadThree workable routes for projects.
| Model | Supply | Installation | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single-point (recommended) | Starwall Sdn Bhd | Infraconcrete Construction Sdn Bhd | Projects that prefer one contact and one accountability chain for both material and workmanship |
| Supply-only | Starwall Sdn Bhd | Project owner tenders separately | Projects with a preferred installer already on board, or where scope splits make sense |
| Installation-only | Material procured through Starwall by main contractor | Infraconcrete Construction Sdn Bhd | Main contractor packages supply differently |
For all three models, the STRATA appointment runs through Starwall as the formal distributor. Material certificates of conformance and technical datasheets are issued through Starwall regardless of installation arrangement.
