  • Geonets are among the most proven geosynthetics drainage systems.
  • Manufactured from two, or three strands of extruded hdpe which are overlayed across each other, this material forms a void within which water can be transmitted and reduces pore water pressure.
  • GeofanNet loses little drainage capacity when put under pressure or normal loading.
