TerraTex® High Performance

TerraTex® High Performance Stabilization Geotextiles (HPG) provide enhanced separation, filtration, reinforcement. These unique products offer excellent performance in wet subgrade conditions as well as increased frictional interaction with roadway base aggregate.

View Case Studies

TerraTex® geotextiles are made up of high tenacity polypropylene yarns. These yarns are woven to form a stable and durable network such that the yarns retain their relative position. They are non-biodegradable and resistant to most soil chemicals, acids, and alkali with a pH range of 3 to 12. Unless noted otherwise, all values are minimum average roll values (MARV).
