Soil Saver Geo Textile

Product Description

• Materials: Soil savers are typically made from woven jute or coir (coconut fiber) yarn. Jute is often used for low-cost protection of slopes, and coir is used for its high strength and durability.
• Biodegradability: Because they are made from natural fibers, these products are 100% biodegradable. After a few years, they decompose and add organic content to the soil, improving its structure and fertility.
• Permeability and strength: The fabric is permeable, allowing water to pass through while trapping fine soil particles. It comes in different weights (e.g., 400 to 1000 GSM) and weave types (open or loop) to provide varying levels of strength and filtration. 

• Erosion control: This is the primary function of a soil saver. It is used on slopes, embankments, and riverbanks to prevent soil from being washed away by water or blown away by wind.
• Slope stabilization: By holding the soil in place, it helps stabilize slopes and embankments, protecting them from erosion and landslides.
• Promotes vegetation: The fabric's porous structure retains moisture and protects seeds, creating a favorable microclimate for vegetation to grow. The natural fibers decompose over time, providing organic nutrients for plants.
• Civil engineering projects: Jute and coir soil savers are used in a variety of infrastructure projects, including:
  • Roads and railways: For stabilizing and reinforcing embankments.
  • River and canal banks: To protect against water-induced erosion.
  • Coastal protection: Used in geotextile bags and tubes to protect shorelines.
  • Drainage systems: Functions as a filter layer to prevent clogging.
• Landscaping and agriculture: It is a valuable material for stabilizing soil in gardens, nurseries, and rehabilitation areas.
