NONWOVEN GEOTEXTILES
Thrace Nonwovens
are specially
designed
to provide
reinforcement,
separation,
filtration, drainage,
protection and
erosion control.
Depending
on their special mechanical and hydraulic
properties, they are suitable for being used as
separators to prevent the intermixing of the
different soil layer types. It filters to allow the
flow of fluids while preventing the passage
of soil particles, and protective layers for
geomembranes in landfills. Having control over
the entire manufacturing process provides the
opportunity to intervene at various production
phases to come up with innovative products
that fulfil special customer requirements. By
converting over 110,000 tons of PP through a
vertically integrated business model, unique
cost advantages are attained and passed on to
customers through value-for-money products.

TYPAR Geosynthetics
BIOBARRIER
The BIOBARRIER
root and weed
control system
manages roots
through the slow,
controlled release
of Trifluralin, a
non-systemic
herbicide that has
been used in food crop production for more
than 40 years. Nodules containing Trifluralin
are through-injection-molded durable TYPAR
GEOTEXTILE fabric, creating a continuous
chemical and physical barrier against roots
without impeding the flow of water, air or
nutrients. Roots growing into the zone of
inhibition are stopped, not just redirected.
Used vertically, the BIOBARRIER root control
system protects adjacent structures from
root damage. Installed horizontally below 3 "
of stone/wood mulch, the BIOBARRIER weed
control system blocks weed establishment
using two layers of defense: chemical and
physical. BIOBARRIER Surround System,
BIOBARRIER'S unique geotextile design, lends
it the flexibility to surround infrastructure,
extending the life of your investment.
TYPAR Geosynthetics
TYPAR GEOCELL
TYPAR GEOCELL
utilizes the
strength and
permeability of
a geotextile to
create a 3D cellular
confinement
system. The
cell walls are
permeable to water, air and nutrients,
increasing stability and vegetative
performance. The TYPAR GEOCELL system
ships in compacted panel form and expands
into a honeycomb formation to the desired
shape and dimension on-site. The unique,
lightweight, flexible material conforms
to surface variations to improve ease of
installation while resisting impact damage.
The cellular structure of the TYPAR GEOCELL
system improves resistance to erosive forces
on steep, unstable or sloped surfaces exposed
to severe hydraulic or mechanical stresses.
Variable cell depths and diameters provide
cost-effective options for protection up to 1:1
(45 deg) slopes. TYPAR GEOCELL cells transfer
downward forces laterally, reducing loads on
underlying soils. The cellular confinement
system is an ideal solution.
TYPAR GEOTEXTILES
Made in the
USA, TYPAR
GEOTEXTILES
boast over 40
years of proven
performance
in separation,
stabilization,
and filtration
applications. The
continuous filament, thermally bonded design
provides a higher strength:weight ratio than
standard non-woven construction fabrics
and maintains consistent permeability rates
regardless of soil type or compaction. Tough
over time, TYPAR GEOTEXTILES preserve the
original design, reduce construction and
maintenance costs, and increase a project's
longevity. TYPAR GEOTEXTILES' unique
characteristics make it the ideal solution
for road reinforcement, industrial yard
stabilization, subsurface drain applications,
erosion control, landfill separation, mulch
underlayment, and septic system projects.
