Nonwoven Geotextiles
Versatile Solutions for Separation, Filtration, and Protection
Nonwoven geotextiles are flat textile structures made from synthetic fibers, assembled through advanced needle-punching or thermal bonding processes. Known for their versatility and reliability, these materials are widely used in various applications to provide separation, filtration, and protection functions. Nonwoven geotextiles are also fundamental components in composite systems, combining seamlessly with other geosynthetics to enhance overall performance in complex projects.
With a focus on quality and performance, nonwoven geotextiles can be tailored based on fiber length, polymer composition, and manufacturing processes, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of project requirements. Leveraging Maccaferri’s extensive expertise, these geotextiles are trusted for infrastructure, hydraulic construction, environmental protection, and civil engineering projects worldwide, offering durable and cost-effective solutions for demanding applications.

BARRAGEM CAMPEIRA - CRISTALÂNDIA
The Campeira Dam is responsible for supplying water to the city of Cristalândia (TO) for most of the year. A few years ago, after intense periods of rainfall, the dam's spillway, which was 7 metres wide, was not sufficient to release all the excess water from the reservoir, causing it to overflow and consequently the erosion of the shoulders and the dam's structure to be compromised.

CIAWI DAM DROP STRUCTURE
Indonesia
Ciawi Dam is a dry dam located in West Java, Indonesia. The infrastructure is planned to have a capacity of 6,45 m3 and expected to reduce the flood discharge of 160 m3/sec. The purpose of this dam is to reduce the amount of rainwater from the upstream so that the city in the lowland area doesn’t flood. As a part of the dam construction, there is an existing river flow that needs to be diverted. The original design was using the heavy galvanize as the coating of the wire mesh or concrete structure as the alternative. The total length of the drop structure is 54,2 meters and 18 meters of total height.

CRUSHER WALL AT INDOCEMENT FACTORY
Indonesia
Indocement factory is located in the South of Jakarta and it is the second largest cement producers in Indonesia. The Client needed a flexible retaining structure to be connected with the existing concrete vertical wall used as crusher wall. The total soil height to be retained was approximately 14m. The area is characterized by a high seismic level and an horizontal seismic acceleration equal to 0. 23g had to be considered in the design process. Another constraint of the project was the maximum available space behind the new retaining structure which was equal to 13m. The client took into consideration in the first place a mass gravity retaining wall made with gabions.
