Non-woven
Geotextiles provide excellent stability in civil engineering applications.
These products form protective barriers and support underneath and
can vent built-up liquids and gases beneath the surface. Non-woven
geotextiles are used as a cushion for a geomembrane liner or for
subsurface drainage, roadway separation, railroad stabilization,
hard armor underlayment, and in gas venting and drainage systems.
These
products are effective in most all soils, especially silty and
clayey environments.
Geotextiles
show excellent chemical compatibility with various leachates.
Extends
road and railway life by stabilizing subgrades and prevents
the fouling of ballast beneath railway tracks.

DESIGN
NOTES:
Environmental Engineering Applications:
Geomembrane
Protection
-
Heavy weight
nonwovens (Geotex 1001, 1201, 1601) cushion and protect geomembranes
from damage by sharp objects, elevating puncture, impact and
abrasion resistance.
Drainage
Systems
- When
placed in intimate contact with a geonet or drainage stone,
medium weight (501-1101) can filter soil and waste while allowing
water and leachate to pass.
Gas
Venting
-
Heavy weight (1201-1751) provides collection and lateral transmission
of liquids and gases that may build up beneath flexible geomembranes
used in the closure and capping of waste facilities.
