- in temporary roads, permanentroads, parking areas and pathsFibertex Geotextiles placed below the topgravel layer separate the different layers,stabilise the construction and increase thebearing capacity to withstand traffic loads.

- as membrane protectionFibertex Geotextiles protect the membrane ingarden ponds. When placed below the mem-brane the geotextile protects against perforationfrom stones and sharp objects and placed abovethe membrane against mechanical impact.

- as impact sound suppressionFibertex Geotextiles are ideal as impact soundsuppression in e.g. bathrooms in storey parti-tion. Place the geotextile between the con-crete floor and the bathroom floor.

- as separation/protectionPlace the Fibertex Geotextile next to the ex-cavation and avoid cleaning the lawn or patiowhen removing the soil. In the house FibertexGeotextiles can be used as protection of floorand furniture during renovation. Placed indoor openings the geotextile will prevent dustfrom spreading to other rooms.

- for driveways or terraces with slabsFor stabilisation of the foundation place a Fib-ertex Geotextile layer under the compressedgraded aggregate to separate it from the sandlayer. After levelling the sand place a layer ofgeotextile and lay out the slabs directly on thegeotextile - minimising weeds from below andpreventing sand from being pushed up.

- as drainage geotextileFibertex Geotextiles separate the drainagematerials from the soil in drainage trencheswhile allowing water to pass through. Incircumferential drains Fibertex Geotextilesensure clean and effective drains alongfoundations and basement walls.

- as separatorFibertex Geotextiles placed on the capillary-breaking layer act as an effective separationfrom the concrete.

- for coveringFibertex Geotextiles protect materials andmachinery effectively against dust and sun-light. Being permeable to air and water thegeotextile ensures a sound environment.

Working withFibertex GeotextilesFibertex Geotextile rolls can be cut

with a chain saw (cool blade to pre-vent fabric from melting). Unrolled,the fabric can be cut with a knife orscissors. Overlaps can be seamed bysewing, stapled or glued together.

Storage of rollsFibertex Geotextiles are delivered in

rolls with a protective wrapping. Dur-

ing storage the rolls must be elevated

from the ground and protected from

exposure to direct sunlight.

Quality AssuranceFibertex Geotextiles are CE marked

under the EU Construction Products

Directive. CE marking certifies thatFibertex’s quality management

system (DS/EN ISO 9001:2000)

complies with the EN standards

(level 2+).

Fibertex is certified according to

DS/EN ISO9001:2000 (Quality) and

DS/EN ISO14001 (Environment).

Fibertex GeotextilesFibertex manufactures nonwo-ven geotextiles using the drylaid

needlepunch technology. Virginpolypropy-lene fibres are extruded,carded and finally needlepunched.All Fibertex Geotextiles are UV-sta-bilised, resistant to acids and alkalis,and cannot be attacked by fungi orrot. No chemical binders are used inthe product or in the productionprocess. Polypropylene is a polymermaterial which turns into carbondioxide and water vapour whenincinerated - both completely harm-less substances.

Advantages of usingFibertex GeotextilesWhen using geotextiles betweendifferent construction layers, mixingof the layers is avoided, resulting inan increase of bearing capacity aswell as time and material savings.High water flow and good filterproperties combined with thenecessary mechanical propertiesof the geotextile ensure that fine-grained particles are retained,while free movement of water is

maintained. Consequently, stabilityis improved and the lifetime of theentire construction is prolonged.
