What density and type of geotextile to choose?
Let's analyze the most popular areas of application:
- It is better to use thermally bonded geotextile under the PVC membrane. Its fibers will not be wound on the drill or other fasteners during installation. It is best to take a cloth with a density of 120-150 gr / sq.m.
- For garden paths, geotextile needle-punched density of 100-150g/m2.
- For a pond, needle-punched geotextile with a density of 250-300g/m2 or thermally bonded 100g/m2.
- For beds and flowerbeds - heat-bonded geotextile with a density of 100-120g/m2.
- To shelter plants, you need to use needle-punched geotextile with a density of 150-250g / m2.
- For gabions - thermally bonded geotextile 300g/m2.
- For drainage - thermally bonded geotextile from 120-150g/m2.
- For drainage pipes 120g/m2 heat-bonded or needle-punched geotextile 150g/m2.
- For the blind area, take the density of needle-punched geotextile 250-300g / m2 or thermally bonded with a density of 150-200g / m2.
- Geotextile thermally bonded with a density of 150-200g/m2 is suitable for the foundation
