GeoTextiles GT-Series (GTEX6GTEX8GTEX10GTEX12GTEX16)

When it comes to infrastructure, civil engineering and construction projects, selecting the right materials is key to ensuring longevity and performance. The Viaflex GeoTextiles GT-Series, a line of high-quality, nonwoven geotextiles, delivers cutting-edge solutions for soil stabilization, drainage, reinforcement and protection. Known for their exceptional durability and resistance to environmental factors, the GT-Series is designed to perform in a wide range of applications, from roadways and railways to subsurface drainage and geomembrane liner protection.

Features

Versatile Performance Across Soil Types: The GT-Series geotextiles are designed to be effective across a wide variety of soil types, offering enhanced separation and filtration properties. This versatility makes the product adaptable to different project environments, including those with challenging soil conditions. By providing a stable separation layer between differing soil materials, the GT-Series prevents soil mixing, which in turn improves drainage and stability over time. 
 
Engineers and contractors can trust that the GT-Series will perform well in diverse conditions, simplifying the material selection process for a wide array of projects.

Roadway and Railway Life Extension: One of the primary uses of the GT-Series is as a reinforcement layer for roads and railways. The geotextile stabilizes the subgrade by distributing loads and reducing the risk of settlement or shifting. Over time, this leads to extended road and railway life, as the subgrade remains intact despite heavy traffic or load-bearing stress. 
 
This feature offers significant cost savings by reducing the need for frequent repairs or reconstruction, contributing to the overall durability of transportation infrastructure.

Exceptional Resistance to Chemicals and Biological Degradation: Constructed from polypropylene fibers, the GT-Series is highly resistant to naturally occurring chemicals, acids and alkalis. It’s also inert to biological degradation, meaning it can withstand exposure to harsh environmental conditions without losing its structural integrity.  
 
In projects where exposure to contaminants is a concern, such as landfills or industrial sites, the GT-Series provides long-term reliability, ensuring that the geotextile performs consistently without compromising safety or efficacy.

Needlepunch Nonwoven Construction: The needlepunched nonwoven structure of the GT-Series allows for superior durability and flexibility. The geotextile is composed of a network of polypropylene fibers that are mechanically bonded to maintain their relative positions, providing excellent tensile strength and stability. 
 
The flexibility and strength of the nonwoven design make it ideal for cushioning geomembrane liners, stabilizing soil in erosion-prone areas and offering reinforcement in load-bearing applications like railroads and roadways.

Multi-Functional Applications: The GT-Series is engineered to fulfill several essential roles in civil engineering projects, including separation, drainage filtration, reinforcement and protection. GT-Series consistently delivers high performance across different functionalities, whether it’s used to stabilize a roadway, protect a geomembrane liner or support drainage systems. 
 
This multi-functionality reduces the need for multiple specialized products, lowering overall material costs and streamlining project logistics.
