What Are Geo-Textiles?

Geo-Textiles can be defined as”a fabric or synthetic material placed between the soil and a pipe, gabion or retaining wall; to enhance water movement and slacken soil movement and act as a mask to add underpinning and separation.”These are generally made up of woven, nonwovens and knitted type of fabrics. Geo-Textiles also known as Industrial Textiles, High Performance Textiles, Engineered Textiles, Technical Textiles and Industrial Fabrics are especially designed and finagled structures that are generally used in processes/ services of non cloth industriousness. They are paraphernalia and products manufactured primarily for their technical and performance parcels rather than for aesthetic and cosmetic characteristics.

These are generally made up of-wovens and knitted type of fabrics. Geo-Fabrics are the largest group of geo- clones in terms of volume and are used in geo-specialized engineering, heavy construction, structure and pavement construction, hydro-geology, terrain engineering. Specialized Fabrics is the fastest growing branch of cloth industriousness worldwide with bright prospects. The total global trade of Technical Textiles in 1995 wasUS$ 42 bn. It’s estimated to beUS$ 72 bn in 2005 and is anticipated to reachUS$ 126 bn by 2010. Asia is the top patron and consumer of Technical Textiles.
Uses of different types of Geo-Fabrics are as follows

Woven geo- fabrics concrete bases used for coastal factory, water ways, dikes and in forming geocell for road
Nonwoven geo- fabrics used for Filtration, drainage, underpinning between soil monument or total and in roads, roads factory, erosion prevention and separation. As sludge fabric for heads, under drainage system liners for pile foundation, coated pvc and bitumen s to skin traction
Knitted geo- fabrics used Knitted bags for protection of levee’s beachfront etc. Bolstering knitted fabric of Kevlar yarns used in machine and marine operation.
It’s also used with foundations, soil, rock, earth or any other related material as an integral part of mortal man made design, structure or system.
