TECHNICAL DATASHEET

TERRAM STANDARD GEOTEXTILE GT


DESCRIPTION
Nonwoven geotextile manufactured from UV stabilised, high tenacity, virgin polypropylene fibres that
have been both mechanically and thermally bonded to provide high strength and excellent abrasion
characteristics.

Engineered to provide high strength and high elongation at break to ensure excellent resistance to
damage during construction. Terram standard geotextiles are manufactured to performance properties,
not weight, sufficient fibre will be added to achieve these properties.

Manufactured from high tenacity UV stabilised virgin polypropylene fibres which have been heavily
drawn to ensure excellent long term durability in all soil types. Manufactured using a randomly
orientated web to provide completely isotropic properties, ensuring that high strength is not limited to a
single direction. Excellent uniformity with high permeability and low pore size for soil filtration. with temperature of less than 25ºC.

DURABILITY
This product is predicted be durable for more than 25 years in soils with a PH in the range 2 to 14 and with temperature of less than 25ºC.

CHEMICAL RESISTANCE
Polypropylene and polyethylene are unaffected by the chemicals which normally exist in soils.
BIOLOGICAL RESISTANCE
Polypropylene and polyethylene are not nutrients for micro-organisms and do not provide nurishment for animals & insects.
UV EXPOSURE
TCS Geotechnics' products are delivered to site in polyethylene wrapping to protect against the effectsbof ultra-violet radiation. It is recommended that the
products remain wrapped until their installation, Once unwrapped, the products should completely covered with fill within 14 days to avoid exposure to UV
radiation.

Versions of most products can be manufactured with enhanced UV performance by incorporating stabilisers. These versions carry the suffix UV.
The remaining properties are identical to the corresponding standard grade. Adequate precautions should always be taken to protect all products from UV
radiation to achieve the stated durability.

Notes: 1. Refer to TCS for when simple overlaps are required for subsequent and adjacent roll lengths. However, pegging, sewing, stapling, or gluing can also
be used depending upon the application, the sub-grade conditions. The loading, the convenience, and the cost.
2. These figures relate to standard product weights and roll sizes. Other weights, sizes and colours may be available on request. For further information
