Geotec Non-Woven Textile is a general purpose, needle punched thermally bonded non-woven geotextile for use as a separator in all types of civil engineering and building projects. Geotec Non-Woven Textile creates a firm foundation on which you can mbuild with confidence.
If Geotec Non-Woven Textile is not used over 150mm of stone will be lost into the ground where soil has a CBR of less than 3%, some road construction would be impossible to build without the use of a geotextile separator.
Its main application is to separate granular material from soft soils in road construction, car parks land fill, reclamation, and docklands, etc.
Lotrak® separation geotextiles are used between the sub grade and sub base. This prevents intermixing of expensive stone and other aggregates within the soil, while providing good ground stabilisation.
Designed to control particle movement of the soil, Lotrak® separators, prevent clogging while maintaining water flow by creating a bridging zone to promote natural soil filtration. The main purpose of all Lotrak® separation geotextiles is to prevent the loss of construction gravel and aggregates into the underlying soil and/or subgrade.
