Syntex nonwoven light weight drainage and separation fabric is a polypropylene (PP) geotextile and made from needle punched polypropylene staple fibre. These fibers are cut, opened, laid onto a web, needled, inspected, tested and rolled. Applications Gabion: Geotextile is used to prevent spoil from entering the gabion structure. This this application a light weight 145gsm fabric is preferred. Civil: Roadway Stabilisation/ Separation: Roads and highways are built using geotextile to prevent aggregate from mixing with the subgrade. Drainage: Syntex nonwoven geotextiles are ideal for drainage applications. Unlike woven geotextiles (with the exception of monofilament drainage fabrics), polypropylene nonwovens resist clogging.
