Soil Separator Fabric Applications


Mirafi® geo fabric is primarily used for subsurface drainage along highways, within embankments, under airfields, and for athletic fields. This nonwoven geotextile provides the necessary strength and abrasion resistance to withstand installation and application stresses, creating an effective, long-term drainage solution. These heavyweight, nonwoven fabrics are effective in critical subsurface drainage systems, permanent erosion control, soil separation, and geo-membrane liner protection in landfills. Other uses for soil separator fabric are: cut-off/interceptor drains along rode ways, liner protection within landfills, and French Drains without the use of pipes.
