The most common product in the family of geosynthetics is nonwoven geotextiles. This product is a random assembly of synthetic fibres, commonly polypropylene and polyester.

Nonwoven geotextiles are mostly treated during production with Ultra Violet Stabilizers. The weight range of this product in civil engineering applications are typically from 120gsm to 1200gsm.

Nonwoven geotextiles display strength with high elongation. Its main function is filtration and separation. Its applications include:

•	road construction, highways and highway embankments
•	airport runways, shore protection in reclamation works and asphalt repaving of roads.

Typical Applications:

Used as separator between unsuitable material and good backfilled material. This usage will reduce the excavation depth of unsuitable sub-grade. It also reduces the aggregate thickness to stabilize the sub-grade.

The non-woven geotextile maintains a uniform settlement of the sub-grade and hence improve the sub grade strength and prolong the life of the system.

Filtration:

Emas Kiara non-woven geotextiles have different range of pore openings to reduce the potential of clogging. The range of pore openings shall be compared to the grain size of the material to be filtered to obtain the optimum filtration. This geotextile acts as a filter and separator, retaining the natural soil while allowing water to pass into the drainage system.

Emas Kiara also produces special heavy duty non-woven geotextile for coastal and riverbank revetment systems.

This special geotextile not only acts as a filter and a separator but also reduces the maintenance of erosion control systems and costs. Besides providing high puncture resistant, it also provides lateral in-plane drainage for the system. It effectively filters fine silty soils that are subjected to turbulent flow. Hence maintaining and enhancing the stability of erosion protection structures.
