SKAPS woven geotextiles are individual threads (monofilaments, multi-filaments, fibrillated yarns) or slit films and tapes that are actually woven on a loom. Typically, woven geotextile fabrics can be used for stabilization, separation, reinforcement, and erosion control applications. Woven geotextile fabrics strive to provide dimensional stability and deliver superior load distribution.
SKAPS Industries Medium Strength woven geotextiles provide excellent separation and filtration characteristics ideally for ground reinforcement applications where the on-site soil stabilization conditions are poor.
SKAPS Industries’ woven geotextiles typically hold a higher strength-to-weight ratio in comparison with their non-woven needle-punched geotextiles. In comparison to non-woven geotextiles, woven geotextiles typically maintain slower drainage characteristics due to their smaller pore sizes. Therefore, woven geotextiles are less likely to be applied in engineered areas that require high filtration and drainage characteristics.
