NovaTex In Malaysian Infrastructure Projects
Explore selected NovaTex applications in civil engineering and infrastructure projects across drainage, revetment & ground reinforcement.
Drainage Blanket
Sg. Rasau Water Supply Scheme
NovaTex NW10 non-woven geotextile was used as a separator within the drainage blanket.
Marine Revetment
Senibong Cove Rock Revetment
NovaTex NW90 heavy-duty non-woven geotextile was used as a filter layer within the rock revetment system.
Basal Reinforcement
KLIA Residential Development
NovaTex WV400 high-strength woven geotextile was used for basal reinforcement.
Our Geotextile Range
Different ground conditions require different material properties. NovaGeo helps you identify a suitable NovaTex grade based on your application and project specifications.

For Separation & Subgrade Reinforcement
Woven geotextiles help maintain separation between soil and aggregate layers and provide reinforcement where required by the project design.
Common Applications:
- Road Construction
- Working Platforms
- Weak Subgrade Reinforcement
- Soil Separation
- Embankment Bases
Key Considerations:
Tensile strength, elongation, opening size and installation requirements.

For Filtration, Drainage & Protection
Needle-punched non-woven geotextiles allow water to pass while retaining soil particles. They also provide cushioning within geosynthetic systems.
Common Applications:
- Subsurface Drainage
- Filtration Layers
- Rock Revetments
- Soil Separation
- Geomembrane Protection
Key Considerations:
Opening size, hydraulic performance, puncture resistance and protection requirements.
High-Strength PET
For Engineered Reinforcement
High-tenacity polyester geotextiles are intended for applications requiring high tensile capacity and consideration of long-term reinforcement performance.
Common Applications:
- Basal Reinforcement
- Embankments Over Soft Soils
- Heavy Earthworks
- Engineered Void-Bridging Applications
Key Considerations:
Design tensile strength, elongation, creep, durability and installation conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Woven geotextiles are commonly considered for separation and reinforcement applications. Non-woven geotextiles are commonly considered for filtration, drainage-system filtration, separation and protection. The appropriate choice depends on the required material properties, soil conditions and project design.
Both woven and non-woven geotextiles may be used in road construction, depending on whether the main requirement is separation, filtration or reinforcement. Selection should consider subgrade conditions, loading, installation conditions and the project specification.
