Landscape Fabric Geotexitle
Manufacturing Process
Landscape Fabric Geotextile is produced through continuous industrial textile processing.
Polypropylene chip drying and metered feeding.
Melt spinning into continuous filaments or staple fibers.
Web formation by carding and cross-lapping.
Needle-punch consolidation using high-speed looms.
Thermal bonding through calibrated heated rollers.
Online thickness and mass monitoring with laser sensors.
Slitting, rolling, and batch-coded packaging.
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.

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
Define project load classes and soil condition categories.
Calculate required tensile strength and puncture resistance.
Verify hydraulic flow requirements for drainage performance.
Confirm UV resistance requirements based on exposure time.
Specify roll width and cut tolerances for site layout.
Request third-party laboratory test reports.
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.
