Geotextiles are permeable fabrics which, when used in association with soil, have the ability to separate, filter, reinforce, protect, or drain.
These are typically made from polypropylene or polyester.
Its uses
They support many civil engineering applications including roads, airfields, railroads, embankments, retaining structures, reservoirs, canals, dams, bank protection, coastal engineering and construction site silt fences or geotube.
They are also used for sand dune armoring to protect upland coastal property from storm surge, wave action and flooding.
They are used as matting to stabilize flow in stream channels and swales.
They can improve soil strength at a lower cost than conventional soil nailing
