Woven vs. Nonwoven Geotextiles explained by your trusted geotextile experts

Geotextiles are essential in various construction, landscaping, and engineering projects, and they generally fall into two categories: woven and nonwoven. Here’s what sets them apart:

Geotextile Fabrics – Woven

Woven geotextiles are made by weaving together polypropylene or other synthetic fibers in specialized weaving patterns to provide a variety of functions in construction projects. These geotextile fabrics are known for their high tensile strength, which makes them ideal for projects where soil separation and stabilization are key. Woven geotextiles are often used in road construction, embankment reinforcement, and erosion control. They help to to extend the life of a project by providing structural integrity.

Nonwoven Geotextile Fabrics

Nonwoven geotextiles, on the other hand, are produced by bonding fibers together through mechanical, chemical, or heat processes. These fabrics are typically softer and have a felt-like texture. Nonwoven geotextiles excel in filtration and drainage applications, such as wrapping drainage pipes, retaining walls, or under riprap in erosion control projects. Their ability to allow water to pass through while preventing soil from clogging systems makes them a go-to material for many water management projects.
