We provide woven geotextile in civil engineering for a wide range of design functions:

Separation

  • Maintain soil integrity and prevent soils from mixing and interfering with another.
  • Increase load capacity and stability of a structure.
  • Significantly reduce maintenance.

See separation products


Filtration

  • Retain soil, sand or silt subject to hydrodynamic forces without interfering with water flow.
  • Effectively prevent hydraulic pressure.

See filtration products


Reinforcement

  • Safeguard structural stability through load distribution.
  • Improve mechanical performance in soil masses and prevent movement and deformation.

See reinforcement products


Erosion control

  • Prevent damage through soil erosion and wind in geotechnical and hydraulic structures.

Case study: reduced CO2 emissions at the Ostend-Bruges airport

Terralys LF57/57 was installed over 160.000m² of runway at Ostend airport. The woven geotextile was selected over the conventional method of applying 10cm of gravel to strengthen the asphalt structure. We analyzed the reduction in carbon impact on multiple levels:

  • Product: geotextile vs. gravel
  • Raw material: polypropylene (PP) vs. polyester (PET) granulate
  • Geotextile type: woven vs. non-woven

The results of our findings include significant reductions in:

  • CO2 emissions
  • Transport
  • Use of natural resources & materials

How to reduce 92% CO2 eq. on a single jobsite?

960 trucks of gravel = 3 trucks of geotextiles

Our calculations predict an extended life span of the runway, thanks to the superior durability and resistance to degradation of the Terralys product. The full analysis and benefits for polypropylene woven geotextile can be consulted in this GEO case study Durability Reference report.

Geosynthetics in civil engineering: fundamental to sustainable development

Engineers today face the challenge of designing infrastructure solutions while conserving resources and energy. Geosynthetics deliver the design and construction technology needed in infrastructure development to:

  • Reduce carbon footprint
  • Minimize the use of natural resources
  • Increase road quality & longevity

Beaulieu Technical Textiles is an active member of several associations. Through our membership, we support and promote the appropriate use of geosynthetic technology for sustainable development.
