Polyester (PET) Continuous Filament Nonwoven Geotextile is a high-strength, permeable synthetic fabric made from endless polyester filaments (not staple fibers) bonded together mechanically (needle-punched) or thermally. Unlike woven geotextiles, it has a random fiber structure, providing excellent filtration, separation, and reinforcement properties.
Applications
| Application | Function |
|---|---|
| Road/Railway Construction | Separates soil & aggregate, prevents rutting. |
| Landfills & Drainage | Filters leachate, protects liners. |
| Erosion Control | Stabilizes slopes, riverbanks. |
| Coastal Protection | Reinforces seawalls, sand dunes. |
| Agriculture | Weed barrier, soil stabilization. |
Advantages
vs. Woven Geotextiles: Better filtration, no unraveling.
vs. Staple Fiber Nonwovens: Higher strength (continuous filaments).
vs. PP (Polypropylene) Geotextiles: Superior UV & chemical resistance.
