Thermally bonded geotextile Fibertex F-20 100 g/sq.m, gray Fibertex

​Properties of Fibertex Geotextile:The tensile strength, puncture strength and properties associated with the elongation of geotextiles should be sufficient to ensure not only separation, but also the preservation of the material itself during installation.

A typical geotextile pore size should be sufficient to ensure
the retention of fine particles and the prevention of contamination of the bulk base, while the permeability should be sufficient to ensure the free passage of water. Separation is the main purpose of using geotextile materials and is widely used in the construction of roads and railways. In the EN ISO standards, the separation function is defined as "Preventing the mixing of adjacent layers of various types of soil and/or filling materials using geotextile materials."

• To prevent mixing of the layers of the structure
• To increase the load-bearing capacity by preventing the movement of soil layers.
• To improve the sealing properties of the bulk layer
• To ensure long-term stability of the base layers

Выбор между белым и черным геотекстилем зависит от конкретных условий и предпочтений.

• Черный геотекстиль обычно используется для создания более эстетичных ландшафтов и ассимиляции с окружающей средой. Он также поглощает солнечный свет, что может помочь ускорить процесс нагревания почвы в холодные месяцы.
• Белый геотекстиль, с другой стороны, отражает солнечный свет и может помочь сохранить прохладу в зоне его применения.

The service life of geotextiles depends on the quality of the material, operating conditions and intensity of use. On average, well-installed, high-quality geotextiles can last from 5 to 20 years. However, in some cases, the service life can be longer, especially if the geotextile is used in low-intensity conditions and is maintained properly.

Although geotextiles and spunbond (agrofabric) are both used to protect soil from weeds, they have significant differences in composition and functionality. Geotextiles are usually made from polypropylene or polyethylene and are designed for long-term use under load. Spunbond, on the other hand, is usually made of polypropylene and has a lighter structure, intended mainly for temporary protection of plants from weeds.

Purchasing high-quality geotextiles for your project is easy and convenient in the Budlea online store. We offer a wide range of high quality geotextiles at competitive prices to help you achieve success in your construction or landscaping project.

In case you are looking for an alternative to geotextiles for weed control, one option may be to use mulch. Mulch also helps suppress weed growth, retains soil moisture and prevents soil erosion. Additionally, natural materials such as straw or sawdust can be used as an environmentally friendlier alternative to geotextiles.

Gravel or crushed stone is often placed under geotextiles. This helps create additional drainage and provide a more stable base for the geotextile. In addition, special impregnations or preparations can also be applied to the soil to prevent weed germination.

When choosing geotextiles, you should pay attention to its density, strength, permeability and resistance to environmental influences. The best choice depends on the specific conditions and requirements of your project. It is recommended to consult with professionals or construction experts to select the most suitable option.

Placing geotextiles at the bottom of the bed can be beneficial in preventing weed growth and retaining soil moisture. However, this depends on the specific conditions and requirements of your gardening project. Before making a decision, it is recommended to conduct a soil analysis and consult with experienced gardeners or agronomists.
