Geobags are essential for effective erosion and flood control.
They protect vulnerable areas, stabilize soft soils, and provide long-term coastal and slope reinforcement.
Geotextile bags, or geobags for short, are important geosynthetics used in areas where erosion tends to have a higher occurrence rate, such as riverbanks, shorelines, slopes, wetlands, and urban infrastructure zones. Geobags are important in those areas, as they help to protect and stabilise the soft soils, protect against floods, control erosion, protect coastal areas, and are used for land reclamation.
Geobags are made out of geotextile fabrics, which are synthetic, permeable materials that are designed to be strong, durable, and resistant to environmental conditions. These bags are then filled with materials like sand, soil, and gravel. These bags are then used as barriers and supporting accessories. As a flood control unit, geotextile bags can act as barriers used to control or divert the flow of water. For erosion control and slope protection, they are used as geobag retaining walls to absorb the wave energy from the ocean which helps reinforce and stabilise the soil or shoreline, halting erosion and preventing landslides.
Geobags are a top choice for geosynthetics in these areas due to the benefits they’re able to offer on top of their multi-functional use. Geobag installations are easy, as they’re lightweight and thus, able to be deployed quickly without the need for heavy construction equipment.
They’re also eco-friendly and sustainable, filled with natural and recycled materials. Furthermore, they are made out of geotextiles, which make them durable in all sorts of different environments. This makes them cost-effective for contractors searching for long-term and stable geosynthetic solutions to combat erosion or floods.
NovaGeo provides NovaBag as a reliable geosynthetic for contractors, with the geotextile bags being made from high-quality woven or composite fabrics, sewn together with strong seams. These bags come in various shapes that are made to suit the various uses that geobags are known for.
