Buy geotextile? Discover woven and non-woven geotextile at Deschacht
Geotextile is an indispensable building material in numerous infrastructure, landscaping, and drainage applications. At Deschacht, you will find both woven and non-woven geotextile, each tailored to specific needs such as soil stabilization, anti-root protection, and drainage.
What is geotextile?
Geotextile is a strong, water-permeable fabric used to separate, reinforce, or protect various construction layers. Thanks to its durable and rot-resistant properties, geotextile extends the lifespan of structures and enhances the performance of infiltration systems.
The range of geotextile products at Deschacht
At Deschacht, you will find a wide range of woven and non-woven geotextiles in various widths, weights, and roll sizes. Depending on the application, you can choose geotextiles with high tensile strength, excellent filtration properties, or protection against root penetration.
Geotextile is used for separation, filtration, protection, and soil reinforcement in drainage, foundation, and infrastructure projects, contributing to a sustainable and efficient execution.
Woven geotextile: strength and stabilization
Woven geotextile consists of tightly interwoven threads, making it extremely strong. Ideal for applications where high tensile strength is required, such as:
- reinforcement of roads and driveways
- foundation of parking lots
- separation of different soil layers
- subsoil stabilization
Due to its limited elongation and high strength, woven geotextile ensures that subsidence and rutting are kept to a minimum.
Non-woven geotextile: filtration and protection
Non-woven geotextile is manufactured by mechanically or thermally bonding fibers together, creating a flexible and water-permeable material. Thanks to its excellent filtration properties, it is ideal for:
- drainage around infiltration crates and drainage systems
- protection of waterproofing membranes
- weed barrier fabric under terraces, paths, and gravel surfaces
The geotextile allows water to pass through efficiently while retaining fine soil particles. This keeps drainage and infiltration systems functioning optimally and reduces the risk of clogging.

Common applications of geotextiles
Geotextile is used in drainage, foundation, road construction, and water management projects to improve the stability, durability, and lifespan of structures. Under grass grids, gravel grids, and driveways, it prevents the mixing of soil layers and helps limit subsidence.
Around infiltration crates, drainage systems, and rainwater harvesting, geotextiles ensure efficient filtration, allowing water to infiltrate freely without fine soil particles clogging the structure. In addition, it is used for soil separation and reinforcement in foundations and road construction, as a weed barrier in landscaping, and for erosion control on slopes and banks. As a result, geotextiles provide an essential solution for sustainable water management and stable subgrades.

FAQ
1. When do you choose woven geotextile?
Woven geotextile is suitable when a high tensile strength is required, for example in:
- driveways and parking zones
- road construction projects
- foundation structures
- sites with less bearing capacity
It helps limit subsidence and rutting and increases the stability of the subgrade.
2. When do you choose non-woven geotextile?
Non-woven geotextile is mainly used for:
- infiltration crates
- drainage systems
- rainwater buffers
- protection of waterproofing membranes
- weed control fabrics under patios and gravel paving
Thanks to the high water permeability, the drainage capacity is maintained.
3. What benefits does geotextile offer under foundations and pavements?
Beneath foundations, roads, parking zones, and driveways, geotextile prevents foundation material from mixing with the underlying soil. As a result, bearing capacity is maintained, settlements are limited, and the lifespan of the pavement is increased.
4. How does geotextile contribute to the stability of weak subgrades?
By separating different soil layers, geotextiles prevent foundation material from sinking into a soft subgrade. This results in better load distribution, higher stability, and a reduced risk of rutting or subsidence.
