Geotextile Membrane / Protection Fabric
Permeable geotextile separation and protection fabric
Provides separation, filtration or protection within designed retaining-wall and drainage assemblies. Geotextile fabric is not itself a waterproof barrier.
THE MATERIAL
What it does
Geotextiles are permeable woven or non-woven fabrics chosen for functions such as soil separation, filtration and cushioning. Suitable grades can be used alongside waterproofing membranes, but do not replace the membrane or a designed drainage layer.
Technical considerations
Select the fabric using the soil, filtration, permeability and mechanical requirements. Where membrane protection is needed, confirm cushioning and puncture-resistance requirements; fabric alone may not provide sufficient protection against backfill or construction loads.
Product selection depends on the surface and site conditions. Ask our team for specifications and availability.
