Product Overview
Our Needle-Punched Nonwoven Short-Fiber Geotextile is an engineered
geosynthetic fabric designed for critical applications requiring optimal water flow, long-term filtration, and resistance to vegetation penetration. Made from 100% virgin polypropylene or polyester short fibers
bonded through advanced needle-punching technology, this geotextile
excels in drainage systems, erosion control, and soil stabilization
projects. Its unique structure balances high permeability with
exceptional filtration efficiency, while actively deterring root
growth—making it the ideal choice for sustainable infrastructure
and environmental protection.
Key Advantages
Unmatched Permeability
Rapid Water Flow: High porosity (≥90%) ensures fast drainage, preventing
waterlogging and soil saturation.
Hydraulic Conductivity: 0.1–2.0 cm/s (ASTM D4491), outperforming woven geotextiles in
dynamic water environments.
Precision Filtration
Soil Retention: Retains fine particles while allowing water to pass freely,
preventing clogging and maintaining system integrity.
Gradient Ratio (GR): <3.0 (ASTM D5101), ensuring consistent filtration under high
hydraulic pressure.
Vegetation & Root Resistance
Anti-Growth Design: Dense, nonwoven structure physically blocks root penetration,
reducing maintenance in landscaped areas or near vegetation.
UV-Stabilized: Inhibits organic growth on the surface, even in humid or shaded
environments.
Durable & Flexible
Puncture Resistance: Withstands installation stresses and long-term ground movement.
Chemical Inertness: Resistant to soil acids, alkalis, and biological degradation (pH
2–13).
Applications
Drainage Systems: Subsurface drains, French drains, and retaining wall backfills.
Erosion Control: Slope stabilization, riverbank protection, and turf
reinforcement.
Landfill Engineering: Leachate collection layers, landfill caps, and gas venting.
Road & Rail Construction: Separation and filtration between subgrade and aggregate layers.
Landscaping: Weed barrier under hardscapes, green roofs, and artificial lakes.
Technical Specifications
Material: Polypropylene (PP) or Polyester (PET) short fibers.
Weight: 100–800 g/m² (customizable).
Thickness: 0.5–5.0 mm (varies with weight).
Tensile Strength: 5–25 kN/m (ASTM D4632).
Permeability: 0.1–2.0 cm/s (ASTM D4491).
UV Resistance: ≥70% strength retention after 500 hours (ASTM D4355).
Roll Sizes: 2–6m width × 50–150m length.
