Geotextile tubes are made by PP woven fabric in a variety of sizes and lengths. They are in extra wide sizes with greater load distribution to resist punching and protect the embankment and foundation. Geotextile tubes are not only used to form shoreline structure including form temporary breakwaters, headlands, revetment on sand beach, also used in environment protection, like fill in the pollution silt, they let the water come out and retain the solid articles.
Geotextile Tube is one of the most effective components that are most usually used in protective structure of waterproof erosion. Soft mattress is covered to the places where water flows to reduce the impact energy of water flow and protect soil particles from being flown away by water flow by means of its filtration function, thus, ensuring the stability of soil mass.
