Geotextile fabric: uses and applications
Geotextiles are permeable fabrics consisting mainly of materials such as polypropylene and polyester. Depending on their manufacturing method, they may be woven or non woven, based upon the type of application they are intended for. Woven and non woven fabrics have different production methods. While non woven geotextile fabrics comprise fibres, filaments or other elements that are joined together randomly, in the case of woven fabrics, these yarns, fibres or filaments are intertwined. In this new post, we will focus on the features of applications of woven geotextile fabrics.
