Non-woven geotextile PLANTEX® GROUNDGRID®

fabricfor erosion control

DuPont™ Plantex® GroundGrid® is an innovative, three-dimensional and flexible grid made of Xavan®. This geotextile-based structure is used to confine aggregate, stone, gravel or soil to provide a stable surface for both pedestrian and trafficked areas, such as private driveways, paths, private car parks, golf courses and artificial surfaces sports fields. Its high tensile strength and the honeycomb structure prevent the infill from spreading thus avoiding subsidence and rutting. The loose infill material and the porosity of the base material allows water penetration, both vertically and horizontally making Plantex® GroundGrid® the ideal choice for sustainable drainage (SUDS) applications. Supplied in a compressed concertina format for ease of storage and transport, Plantex® GroundGrid® is simply extended on site. Unfolded, each grid covers an impressive 10 square metres (length 8 m x width 1.25m).
