Filtration Geotextiles are a variant of the original geotextiles, designed and used to allow water to more efficiently flow through while retaining the soil particles.
This, true to its name, allows for it to act as a filter, preventing soil erosion while still letting water pass, which makes it very useful in drainage and soil stabilization projects.
Filtration geotextiles are used over other types of geotextiles in order to perform several specific functions. One such function is soil retention, as it keeps the fine soil particles in place while water is flowing out, maintaining slope stability and foundation integrity.
By being able to efficiently control and filter water, it reduces excess water pressure from the soil as well, ensuring that drainage systems do not get clogged by soil. Aside from filtering, filtration geotextiles also act as a barrier between soil and drainage material, preventing them from mixing. The use of filtration geotextiles is important to ensure a longer infrastructure life, reducing maintenance costs by keeping water flowing and soil stable.
