RG3
Nonwoven polypropylene geotextile with high strength, extensibility, and abrasion resistance for soil protection and filtration.
Application
- Typical uses include protection of impermeable membranes in landfill basal areas, side walls and caps, tailing lagoons, reservoirs, balancing ponds, reed beds, artificial lakes to prevent soil erosion beneath rock armour and pre-cast concrete revetments, sea shores, rivers, water channels, lakes and reservoirs.
- Application areas include environmental engineering, SUDS, coastal and waterways, and pipeline and utility protection.
Description
Nonwoven geotextile manufactured from UV stabilized, high tenacity, virgin polypropylene fibres that have been mechanically entangled to provide high strength, high extensibility, high loft and excellent abrasion characteristics.
Features and benefits:
- Manufactured from inert high tenacity virgin polypropylene fibres giving excellent long term durability in all soil types.
- High static and dynamic puncture resistance ensures a low risk of damage during and post construction.
- Random orientated web with isotropic properties provide the same strength, permeability and filtration in all directions.
- High elongation at break maintains separation and filtration functions under load, particularly in soft and variable ground conditions.
- High loft gives excellent cushioning, protecting underlying geomembranes from puncture.
- Mechanical entanglement of the fibres produces an extremely flexible material, ensuring full contact with highly undulating ground contours maintaining the protection, filtration and separation function.
