Advantages of Geotextile

Geotextile is a sheet-form geosynthetic material made from synthetic fibres such as polyester (PET) or polypropylene (PP). Both woven and non-woven geotextiles offer the following advantages:

Improves Soil Stability

Geotextile acts as reinforcement and as a separator between two layers of soil or material. This increases the soil’s bearing capacity, especially on soft or marshy ground, so it can carry greater loads without subsiding. It is suitable for roads, dikes, runways and ports.

Supports Drainage & Filtration Systems

  • Prevents soil from entering drainage channels,
  • Still allows water to flow freely,
  • Prevents blockages that can cause standing water or flooding.

Prevents Materials from Mixing (Separator)

Geotextile separates native soil from aggregate layers such as gravel, crushed stone and sand. This is essential for keeping a structure stable and preventing settlement caused by soft soil mixing into the hard layer. It is often installed beneath roads, parking areas and stabilized ground.

Durable & Chemical Resistant

  • Resistant to acids and alkalis,
  • Not readily degraded by microorganisms,
  • Resistant to UV when additional protection is provided.

Easy to Install & Cost-Efficient

  • Lightweight, flexible, and easy to transport and install,
  • Requires no heavy equipment during installation,
  • Shortens on-site working time,
  • Reduces future repair requirements.

Environmentally Friendly

  • Reduces erosion and water runoff,
  • Protects structures from premature damage,
  • Reduces the need for re-excavation or large rocks that damage the surrounding environment.

Geotextile Functions in Construction & Civil Engineering

Geotextile is a sheet-form geosynthetic material used to improve the engineering properties of soil. It is generally made from synthetic fibres such as polypropylene (PP) or polyester (PET) and comes in two main forms: non-woven and woven.

Geotextile has five main functions:

Separation Function

Separates two different soil or material layers, such as soft soil and rock aggregate at a road base.
Without a separator, fine subgrade particles can migrate into the aggregate layer, reducing bearing capacity and causing structural deformation.

Example applications:

  • Road foundations,
  • Parking areas,
  • Access roads on peat or marshland.

Filtration Function

Filters soil particles while still allowing water to flow through. This function prevents fine soil particles from clogging the drainage system.

Example applications:

  • Underground drainage systems,
  • Irrigation channels,
  • Retention ponds or embung (small retention reservoirs).

Drainage Function

Conveys water horizontally within the geotextile layer toward an outlet without carrying soil material. This helps prevent excess water pressure that can cause slope or road failure.

Example applications:

  • Roadside or railway drainage,
  • Retaining walls,
  • Base layers for vertical gardens and rooftop gardens.

Reinforcement Function

Adds tensile strength to weak soil so it can support loads above it, including fill, vehicles and building structures. Woven geotextile is highly effective for this function because it has high tensile strength and low elongation.

Example applications:

  • Embankments over soft soil,
  • Toll roads,
  • Dike and dam structures.

Protection Function

Protects other layers from mechanical damage, such as geomembrane installed in ponds, landfills or wastewater treatment plants. Geotextile acts as a cushion that absorbs pressure from sharp rocks or heavy loads.

Example applications:

  • Landfills,
  • Industrial wastewater ponds,
  • Protection for waterproof liners (geomembrane).

Latest Geotextile Prices

PT Petra Nusa Elshada is one of Indonesia’s geosynthetics suppliers, offering both woven and non-woven geotextiles. These products are widely used in infrastructure projects such as highways, irrigation channels, soil embankments and coastal protection. Geotextile prices depend heavily on technical specifications such as weight or tensile strength, roll size and order quantity.

Non-Woven Geotextile

Non-woven geotextile is made by needle punching, a process that bonds fibres with high-pressure needles, rather than by weaving. It is generally produced from polypropylene (PP) or polyester (PET) fibres. Non-woven geotextile is particularly suitable for filtration and soil separation in civil and environmental projects.

Weight (gsm) Standard Size (m x m) Price Range per m² Price Range per Roll Description
150 gsm 4 x 100 IDR 7,500 – IDR 10,000 IDR 2,500,000 – IDR 2,800,000 Used for light drainage and road-base separation
200 gsm 4 x 100 IDR 10,000 – IDR 13,000 IDR 3,000,000 – IDR 3,200,000 Commonly used for soil compaction and light stabilization projects
250 gsm 4 x 100 IDR 13,000 – IDR 15,000 IDR 3,500,000 – IDR 3,900,000 Suitable for geomembrane protection and drainage systems
300 gsm 4 x 100 IDR 14,000 – IDR 16,000 IDR 3,900,000 – IDR 4,000,000 Used for heavy-duty road projects and landslide-prone areas
350–400 gsm 4 x 100 IDR 16,000 – IDR 18,000 IDR 4,500,000 – IDR 5,000,000 Ideal for major projects on peat or waterlogged ground

Non-woven geotextile is widely used for drainage systems, slope reinforcement, landfill lining and soft-soil reinforcement. Its separation function prevents aggregate from mixing with native soil, while its filtration function lets water pass through without carrying soil particles.

Woven Geotextile

Unlike non-woven geotextile, woven geotextile is produced by weaving synthetic yarns, creating a material with high tensile strength and low elongation. This type is suitable for applications requiring high bearing capacity, such as supporting heavy embankments, railway tracks or construction over soft soil.

Tensile Strength (kN/m) Standard Size (m x m) Price Range per m² Price Range per Roll Description
200 kN 4 x 100 IDR 17,000 – IDR 22,000 IDR 6,800,000 – IDR 8,800,000 Suitable for road bases and light pavement areas
300 kN 4 x 100 IDR 25,000 – IDR 30,000 IDR 10,000,000 – IDR 12,000,000 Used for heavy-duty road projects and high embankments
400 kN 4 x 100 IDR 30,000 – IDR 35,000 IDR 12,000,000 – IDR 14,000,000 Required for extreme soil retention, ports and airports

Woven geotextile distributes loads evenly and reduces the risk of differential settlement. It is generally used over soils with low bearing capacity, such as soft clay, peat or marshland. This product is often part of a geogrid reinforcement system or used together with geocell.

How to Apply and Install Geotextile

Geotextile is used in civil engineering projects such as road construction, drainage, reclamation, dikes and landfills. Correct installation is essential for optimal performance. The basic stages and guidelines are as follows:

Site Preparation

Before installing geotextile, complete the following steps:

  • Clear the work area of sharp rocks, roots and construction debris that could damage the geotextile.
  • Level the ground so that no humps can tear the geotextile or prevent it from lying evenly.
  • For wet or soft areas, dewatering may be carried out first.

Measuring and Cutting

  • Measure the installation area and cut the geotextile to size away from the installation site, prefabricating it if needed.
  • Make sure adjacent geotextile sheets have a minimum overlap of:
    • 30–50 cm for stable soil conditions,
    • > 50 cm, or join with stitching, for soft soil or high-load areas.

Placement and Joining

  • Roll out the geotextile slowly and make sure it is not folded or wrinkled.
  • Align the installation with the principal load direction, for example parallel to the road.
  • To join adjacent sheets:
    • Use manual or machine stitching, particularly on major projects,
    • Or use overlapping joints with pegs or stones along the edges to hold them in place.

Adding Cover Material

  • Once the geotextile lies flat, add cover material such as:
    • Aggregate for roads,
    • Fill soil for dikes or slopes,
    • A sand layer for drainage or geomembrane protection.
  • Place it slowly and evenly to avoid tearing the geotextile. Do not drive heavy vehicles directly over uncovered geotextile.

Inspection & Finishing

  • Recheck all joints and make sure no section has lifted.
  • Repair torn geotextile immediately by patching it with an additional piece.
  • Once filling is complete, compact it according to the project specification, for example with a light compactor.
