Non Woven Filter Fabric

The 4.5 oz. non woven geotextile filter fabric is the perfect material for drainage and filtration applications. When compared to medium or heavy-duty models, light weight fabrics offer greater permeability and greater strength than the other light weight non woven filter fabric options. See below for a list of non woven filter fabric applications:

Light weight geotextiles typically include non woven filter fabrics with a weight from 3 to 5 oz. Non woven geotextile filter fabrics are available in medium weight (5-8 oz) and heavy-weight (9-16 oz) options also. To see our full selection: Non Woven Filter Fabrics.

The 4.5 oz non-woven geotextile fabric is a reliable choice for a wide range of site applications, including filtration, drainage, soil stabilization, and material separation. While still categorized as a lightweight fabric, it offers greater strength and resilience than many others in its class. The needle-punched construction allows water to pass through freely while trapping silt and sediment, helping maintain soil structure and prevent clogging in subsurface systems.

Built from durable polypropylene fibers, this geotextile is engineered to withstand environmental stress. It delivers a grab tensile strength of 120 pounds and a water flow rate of approximately 120 gallons per minute per square foot, providing both physical integrity and consistent performance. Its materials are resistant to rot, UV exposure, and certain chemical exposures, remaining stable in pH ranges from 2 to 13.
