Protection

When BioBarrier is used for root control, tree roots reaching the root barrier are stopped, while roots outside the barrier zone continue to grow naturally. When BioBarrier is used for weed control, the root systems of weeds do not grow in the trifluralin zone next to the fabric; roots of trees and shrubs in the same area are below the zone and are not affected.

Civil Geotextiles are utilized in a number of important containment system applications. Used as a separation layer for geomembranes, they protect against damage during the filling process and provide continued separation throughout the systems lifecycle. The heat bonded manufacturing process of geotextiles provides a fabric with improved laminar flow performance and slip-plane resistance characteristics that when combined with a geonet or cuspate drain board, maintains consistent performance under compression without pushing into the net apertures or cuspate dimpling. They are widely used as a substrate for sprayed-in-place liner applications due to the high strength characteristics at lighter weights. Additionally, they are recommended for applications that require a high-performance fabric with consistent and predictable separation, stabilization, filtration and drainage properties.

TYPAR® Geosynthetics offers Protectamesh HD, designed to protect underground infrastructure and avoid dangerous encounters and costly damage to key assets. Protectamesh HD is a rock shield mesh that prevents large stone particles from damaging, abrading, or puncturing a pipeline’s coating to ensure the cathodic protection system is not interrupted. Additionally, it replaces traditional sand buffer methods that require expensive transportation and construction costs.
