Geotextile
Geotextile is a durable, laminated fabric primarily made from polypropylene or polyester, designed for soil stabilization and erosion control in civil engineering applications.
About Geotextile
Geotextiles are engineered fabrics used in geotechnical and civil engineering applications. They are typically constructed by laminating layers of synthetic fibers, such as polypropylene or polyester, to create a robust material that can withstand environmental stresses. The laminated structure enhances the fabric's strength, durability, and resistance to moisture and chemicals, making it ideal for applications like road construction, drainage systems, and erosion control.
