Applications
When compared with conventional methods of construction, construction techniques with Geosynthetics solutions have frequently proved to be the most economic alternative. Geosynthetics solutions also have considerable advantages with regard to carbon footprint levels. As a leading manufacturer of Geosynthetics, MATTEX is aware of its responsibility to preserve the environment and act accordingly. The geotextiles are used in most civil engineering projects and offer significant advantages in hydraulic works, road and railway construction, environmental projects like landfill and dam constructions.
Roads/Railways
Use of geotextiles in Roads & Railways is one of the most common applications of geotextiles. The pumping effect generated by traffic passing can cause a fast deterioration of the ballast and granular support of those to sleepers and asphalt or concrete.
Urban Areas
In urban areas can geotextiles be found in most diverse applications. The geotextiles are being used in access and paved roads, sport fields, riverbed protection, drainage trenches and pond liner protection.
Hydraulic Works
Tidal fluctuations and wave action can cause major damage to coastlines and off-shore construction projects. Nonwoven and specialty woven geotextiles can be used as a filter under layer beneath stone/ rock armour.
Agriculture
AgroMatt has been developed for used for landscaping and horticultural applications. This environmentally friendly product prevents the use of pesticides and avoids labor intensive weeding between pots and plants.
