Non Woven Geotextile

Non woven geotextile are rot-resistant, needle punched fabrics that have high permittivity and water flow rates. This high flow through rate makes nonwoven geotextile fabric perfect for filtration and permanent sediment control. For example, nonwoven geotextile drainage fabric is used to make dewatering bags, which is one of the best ways to remove sediment from water. The weights of non woven geotextile we offer range from light weight to heavy weight. They include:

• 3.1 oz non woven geotextile fabric
• 3.5 oz non woven geotextile fabric
• 4 oz non woven geotextile fabric
• 4.5 oz non woven geotextile fabric
• 6 oz non woven geotextile fabric
• 8 oz non woven geotextile fabric
• 10 oz non woven geotextile fabric
• 12 oz non woven geotextile fabric
• 16 oz non woven geotextile fabric

Light weight non woven geotextile filter fabric is most often used for drainage, landscaping, filtering applications, and asphalt overlay. Medium weight non woven geotextile are used for erosion control, stabilization, drainage, and aggregate separation. Heavy weight non woven filter fabric is used for geomembrane cushioning and road stabilization. Non woven geotextile for drainage and filtration is the most common application.

We also offer our Mirafi® nonwoven geotextiles, an important part of projects, systems or structures that include soil, rock, earth, and other engineering-related material. Mirafi® nonwoven filter fabrics are rot-resistant, needle punched fabrics with high permittivity and water flow rates. Random fibers are mechanically bound together to give Mirafi® fabrics planar, permeable textile structures. These nonwoven drainage fabrics are perfect for landscaping, soil separation, erosion control, and more. We offer a wide range of Mirafi® nonwoven geo textiles from light to heavy weights.

Mirafi® Mscape -a lighter weight nonwoven used primarily for landscaping and weed control. Mirafi® Mscape inhibits existing weed growth, while suppressing any new weeds. Easy to cut and install!

Mirafi® N Series -suited for soil separation and drainage. The construction of Mirafi® N Series filter fabric allows it to easily conform to ground or trench surfaces for problem-free installation.

Mirafi® S Series -heavier fabric, used primarily for subsurface drainage systems and permanent erosion control. The S-Series provides an economical solution for civil engineering applications as a cost-effective alternative to graded-aggregate filters.

Nonwoven Geotextile Filter Fabric Applications

Non woven geotextile filter fabric can have a variety of applications and uses depending on its weight. Lighter weight geotextiles, like 4 oz non woven fabric are used in drainage and landscaping. Additionally lighter weight nonwoven filter fabric can be used for asphalt overlay to inhibit cracking in asphalt. For medium weight geotextiles, like 6 oz and 8 oz geo fabric, applications can include stabilization, erosion control, and drainage projects. Non woven geotextile is commonly used around French drains and subsurface drains to filter out silt and allow water to pass through. For heavy weight nonwoven fabric, like 10 oz drainage fabric, applications often require greater strength for road stabilization and geo-membrane cushioning.
