Geotextiles are smart textiles that
consist of a stable network that retains its relative structure during
handling, placement and long-term service. A Geotextile can be defined as “permeable
geosynthetic comprised solely of textiles.”
Geotextiles are special fabrics made for use in 'geological' situations. They are rot-proof and permeable to water. They can be heavy duty or light duty, black, white or colored. Available in woven and non-woven forms, they apply to a broad range of civil engineering construction, paving, drainage and other applications.
Geotextiles are extensively used with soil, rock, earth or any other geotechnical engineering-related material, as an integral part of human-made project, structure or system. These engineered Geotextiles perform three basic functions: separation, stabilization and filtration.

A glimpse at some of the many application areas:
- Roadways, parking lots, loading areas and construction sites
- Prevent drainage systems from clogging with fine particles
- Filtration, Protection and separation function
- Fluid transmission
- For waterway erosion control
- Reduce soil piping and embankment erosion
- Prevention of weed growth (in horticulture applications)
- Moisture conservation (in horticulture applications)
