What is a Geotextile {2 Main Types}
Nonwoven Geotextiles are often referred to as ‘multipurpose’, and to a great degree deliver on that promise. Contributing to their popularity is their cost-of-manufacture to weight ratio is less than their woven counterparts. The manufacturing process of nonwoven geotextiles is very different from that of woven geotextiles, with needlepunched finishing as the leader. When used in filtration applications it is important to note that the actual mechanics of this function by nonwoven geotextiles are much different than the original woven monofilaments.
