Geotextile: Non-Woven
MacTex® Non-Woven and Composites
Maccaferri MacTex® AR is used in paving applications and acts as a waterproofing and stress relieving membrane within the pavement structure. It is made from a nonwoven needle punched geotextile made from 100% polypropylene staple filaments. The polypropylene is stable within a pH range of 2 to 13. MacTex® AR resists ultraviolet deterioration, biological deterioration, rotting, and naturally encountered acids and bases.
MacTex® N are high quality non-woven geotextiles manufactured from virgin high tenacity polypropylene fibers assembled by a needle punched treatment only. The product is suitable for all general geotextile applications including filtration and separation.
MacGrid® EG are high modulus high density polyethylene (HDPE) grids, produced by a punched and extruded process and characterized by a tensile resistance in both longitudinal and transverse directions. MacGrid® EG are geogrids are used primarily within the granular layers of road construction, or in access tracks in forestry, mining and agriculture. They also provide a soil stabilization function. The granular backfill interlocks with the MacGrid® EG, which provides lateral restraint to the aggregate particles.
