Bontex Geo produce a range of geosynthetic materials used in civil engineering, construction and environmental projects. Their portfolio includes non woven geotextiles, woven stabilisation fabrics, geogrids and drainage composites designed to improve ground performance and control water movement within soil structures.
Non woven geotextiles are typically used for separation and filtration. Installed between the sub grade and aggregate layer, they prevent the migration of fine soils into the stone while allowing water to pass through. This helps maintain the integrity of drainage systems such as French drains, soakaways and attenuation systems.
Woven geotextiles and geogrids are primarily used for ground stabilisation and reinforcement. When placed beneath sub base materials, they improve load distribution and reduce lateral movement within the aggregate layer. This can help reduce rutting and settlement on weak or clay soils with low bearing capacity.
In infrastructure projects such as access roads, car parks and working platforms, geosynthetic reinforcement can reduce the thickness of the sub base required by improving the structural performance of the ground. This can reduce excavation depth and aggregate usage when the ground conditions allow.
Bontex Geo products are commonly used in road construction, railway works, drainage infrastructure, embankments and erosion control systems. In landscaping and groundworks, geotextiles are also used beneath driveways, patios and permeable paving systems to provide separation and filtration within the build up.
Correct specification depends on ground conditions, load requirements and drainage performance. Geosynthetics improve ground performance but they do not replace proper excavation, compaction or drainage design where soils are extremely soft or waterlogged.
Bontex Geo materials provide engineered solutions where soil stability, filtration and long term ground performance are required.
