Engineered for demanding projects, our continuous Long fiber nonwoven geotextile offers exceptional mechanical strength, filtration performance, and long-term durability. Made from 100% virgin polypropylene filaments extruded, drawn, laid randomly, and thermally bonded, it delivers unparalleled consistency and reliability.
High & Uniform Strength: Continuous filaments provide superior tensile, tear, and puncture resistance.
Excellent Filtration: Consistent pore structure retains soil while allowing optimal water flow.
Outstanding Durability: High resistance to UV degradation, chemicals, biologicals, and installation damage.
Dimensional Stability: Minimal elongation under load for predictable performance.
Consistent Properties: Homogeneous structure ensures uniform performance across the entire fabric.
Critical Protection: Superior cushioning for geomembranes against punctures.
Landfill liners & caps (primary protection layer)
Heavy-duty separation under highways/railways
Basal reinforcement on soft subgrades
Coastal & riverbank erosion control
Drainage systems & ponds
Tunnel & infrastructure projects

Feature | Long fiber Nonwoven (长纤土工布) | Staple Fiber Nonwoven (短纤土工布) |
---|---|---|
Raw Material & Structure | Continuous polypropylene filaments extruded, drawn, laid randomly, & thermally bonded. | Short cut (6-15 cm) polypropylene/polyester fibers carded, layered, & needle-punched or thermally bonded. |
Primary Strength | Very High Tensile Strength (MD & CD), High Puncture Resistance, High Tear Resistance. | Moderate Tensile Strength, Moderate Puncture & Tear Resistance. |
Strength Consistency | Highly Uniform due to continuous filaments and homogeneous structure. | Less Uniform; strength can vary more due to fiber entanglement and needlepunching. |
Elongation at Break | Lower Elongation (Generally < 50-80%), better dimensional stability. | Higher Elongation (Often > 50-100%), more stretchy. |
Filtration Efficiency | Excellent & Predictable due to uniform, controlled pore structure. | Good, but pore size distribution can be less uniform. More prone to blinding/clogging in fine soils. |
Permeability (Flow) | High & Consistent cross-plane and in-plane flow. | Generally High, but can be slightly lower than filament at same weight; can compress more under load. |
Durability (UV, Installation) | Superior Resistance to UV degradation, abrasion, and puncture during installation. | Good, but generally lower resistance to UV and mechanical damage than filament. |
Conformability | Good conformability to irregular surfaces. | Excellent Conformability due to softer, bulkier structure. |
Cost | Higher initial cost due to more complex manufacturing. | Lower initial cost. |
Best Suited For | Critical, high-stress applications: Landfill liners/caps, heavy separation/reinforcement, basal layers on soft soils, protection layers, demanding erosion control, under high loads. | General separation, filtration, drainage: Road subgrades (less critical), drainage trenches, basic erosion control, landscape fabric, beneath lighter hardscapes. |
Key Takeaways:
Filament (Long Fiber): Superior strength, consistency, durability, and filtration for critical, high-load infrastructure projects. Higher performance justifies higher cost.
Staple (Short Fiber): Cost-effective solution for standard separation, drainage, and filtration where extreme strength and uniformity are less critical. Excellent conformability.
