Description

Composition and Structure

GeoTubes are fashioned from high-strength Geotextile fabrics that can be woven or non-woven. These fabrics feature specific properties such as permeability and strength allowing application performance.
They resemble large tubes and can have different lengths and diameter depending on the project specifications. Filler material is fed into the GeoTubes through a gravity-feeding process or pumping.

Geotube is a tubular bag made of high-strength geotextile, High-strength polypropylene (PP) or polyester (PET) geotextile, with good tensile, tear and UV resistance.
GeoTubes is a bag made of High-Performance Polypropylene Mesh monofilament woven into bag fabric. GeoTubes has High Strength, Low Elongation, High Permeability, High UV resistance,Acid and Alkali Resistance, Anti-Microbial Erosion Properties, etc.
Geotube geobag is widely used in water conservancy, environmental protection, marine engineering and other fields.

Applications

Geotubes serve several important functions making them versatile and widely used in various applications as follows:

Containment- These tubes are an effective means of containing contaminated material, dredged material or industrial waste, preventing release into the surrounding environment.

Dewatering – GeoTubes are used in the separation of solids and liquids by draining water through the Geotextile fabric. This is observed in sediment and sludge removal projects.

Erosion Control – When strategically positioned along slopes, shorelines and riverbanks, they help prevent erosion and retain sediment only allowing water passage.

Hydraulic Works – GeoTubes are effective in managing water flow, reducing erosion, and maintaining stability in water-related infrastructure projects.

Land Reclamation – These tubes can be used to expand/create new land areas by providing a containment system allowing for controlled deposition of earth.

Shoreline Protection – They function as barriers against wave action, absorbing and dissipating wave energy, reducing impact on the shoreline thus protecting them from erosion and land loss.

Temporary Structures – GeoTubes can form temporary structures such as berms, cofferdams and retaining walls providing stability and support during construction.
