Landscape Fabric Geotexitle

Manufacturing Process

Landscape Fabric Geotextile is produced through continuous industrial textile processing.

  1. Polypropylene chip drying and metered feeding.

  2. Melt spinning into continuous filaments or staple fibers.

  3. Web formation by carding and cross-lapping.

  4. Needle-punch consolidation using high-speed looms.

  5. Thermal bonding through calibrated heated rollers.

  6. Online thickness and mass monitoring with laser sensors.

  7. Slitting, rolling, and batch-coded packaging.


Product Details

Product Definition

Landscape Fabric Geotextile is a permeable synthetic textile material engineered to separate, filter, reinforce, and stabilize soil layers in landscape and civil works. It controls weed growth, prevents soil migration, enhances drainage performance, and extends the structural service life of landscaped and paved systems.

Technical Parameters and Specifications

Landscape Fabric Geotextile is designed with controlled permeability, mechanical strength, and durability for long-term outdoor exposure.

Structure and Material Composition

Landscape Fabric Geotextile uses a layered fibrous structure optimized for filtration and separation.

  • Top Surface Layer: UV-stabilized polypropylene fibers

  • Core Matrix: Needle-punched nonwoven fiber network

  • Bottom Support Layer: Thermally bonded stabilization surface

  • Edge Finish: Heat-sealed or ultrasonically cut edges

  • Additives: Carbon black and antioxidant stabilizers

Application Scenarios

Landscape Fabric Geotextile is engineered for distributors, EPC contractors, and engineering developers across multiple landscape and infrastructure projects.

  • Roadside landscaping and slope stabilization

  • Garden and urban park weed control systems

  • Green roof drainage separation layers

  • Pavement subbase separation in walkways and plazas

  • Sports field and playground construction

Core Problems and Engineering Solutions

  • Problem: Soil migration into drainage layers
    Solution: Controlled pore structure for long-term filtration.

  • Problem: Weed penetration through landscape systems
    Solution: Dense fiber matrix blocks light and root growth.

  • Problem: Poor subbase stability
    Solution: High tensile reinforcement distributes loads.

  • Problem: Premature material degradation
    Solution: UV-stabilized polymers extend exposure service life.

Risk Warnings and Mitigation Recommendations

  • Avoid excessive tension during installation to prevent fiber distortion.

  • Prevent direct long-term sunlight exposure before cover placement.

  • Remove sharp stones and roots from subgrade before positioning.

  • Use recommended overlap widths at joints and edges.

Procurement and Selection Guide

  1. Define project load classes and soil condition categories.

  2. Calculate required tensile strength and puncture resistance.

  3. Verify hydraulic flow requirements for drainage performance.

  4. Confirm UV resistance requirements based on exposure time.

  5. Specify roll width and cut tolerances for site layout.

  6. Request third-party laboratory test reports.

  7. Verify manufacturing quality management certifications.

Engineering Case Study

In an urban park redevelopment project of 12,000 m², Landscape Fabric Geotextile with 150 g/m² mass was installed under gravel walkways and planting zones. Post-installation monitoring over 24 months confirmed stable drainage performance and complete suppression of soil pumping into the surface layers.

FAQ
