Geotextiles

Geotextiles play a vital and long-lasting role in improving ground conditions in a wide variety of construction projects, from road building and car parks to coastal defences and railways.

Geotextiles provide a wide range of functions, making them incredibly versatile. They can block debris or separate aggregates, provide drainage and filtration by allowing water to pass through, increase the level of reinforcement, and even provide protection.

Woven geotextiles are manufactured from synthetic materials, woven together to form a uniform sheet and provide greater tensile strength than a nonwoven geotextile, per weight of product.

Nonwoven geotextiles are manufactured by entangling fibres together, either by thermally bonding or by needle punching. This creates a random structure with a larger pore size. This makes them ideal in filtration and drainage applications, where they can also provide a separation function.

Robust, flexible, reliable and durable, our woven and nonwoven geotextile ranges are available in a variety of roll widths and lengths, allowing you to tailor the product to your installation requirements. This provides efficiencies in both transport and cost.

Old Colwyn Embankment Repairs

We were approached by Alun Griffiths (Contractors) Limited, and Atkins to advise on a suitable geotextile to go beneath rock armour as a heavy-duty separation and filtration layer. The geotextile would form part of the necessary repair work to Network Rail Wales’ embankment at Old Colwyn, Conwy. The project is one of a series of schemes along the North Wales coastline where we have supplied their Multitrack geotextile to Alun Griffiths (Contractors) Limited.

Mostyn Sea Wall Repairs

When gale force winds combined with high tides on Thursday 5th December 2013, the result was the worst storm surge to hit North Wales in years. A solution devised jointly by Atkins, Alun Griffiths (Contractors) Limited and Geoworks was agreed. Our geosynthetic products were used to aid the creation of a barrier against adverse weather.
