When a new DIY store was built at Ravenside Retail Park in Bexhill, the existing car park and roadways had to be extended
on different levels. One company was sought that could design, manufacture, supply and build various retaining walls.
Phi Group, the largest retaining wall specialist in the UK was awarded the contract. The company’s Permacrib timber crib walling and Titan Modular Titan Modular Block
Block reinforced earth systems were specified. Permacrib offers a 60-year Guarantee against insect and fungal attack and the Titan Modular Block System has been independently assessed by the British Board of Agrément and granted BBA Certificate for Roads and Bridges.

Commenting on the choice of Phi Group as a supplier Tim Newns, Senior Technician at Bettridge Turner and Partners said "We for our part found Phi Group very helpful and accommodating to late changes, which we were grateful for."
Particularly pleased with the flexibility of the company’s Titan Modular Block wall system he explained "It was used as a covering to a Reinforced Concrete wall that bridges two gas mains and provides a continuous look to the wall. You don't even know that the Reinforced Concrete wall is there for part of it's length"
Phi Group’s retaining walls can be seen at many major retail parks including Cribbs Causeway Bristol, Bluewater in Kent, and Freeport in Braintree, Essex. Most of the major supermarkets and DIY stores have used the company in the development of their sites and car parks.
