Propex products provide superior performance even under the most demanding construction conditions. Propex fabrics are made of polypropylene with ultraviolet stabilizers to resist degradation caused by exposure to sunlight. Polypropylene is one of the most inert textile polymers available and highly resistant to commonly encountered soil chemicals, mildew, and bacteria.
Product Overview Landlok® ECBs are ideal for the short-term challenge of establishing vegetation in low to moderate erosion applications. Unlike loose fiber mulches, Landlok gives your project dimensional stability, locking seed and soil in place and protecting seedlings to promote faster vegetation growth and a stronger root system. ECBs are easy to install and are designed to degrade over specific periods of time depending on application requirements and project location. They are comprised of either straw and/or coconut fibers or polypropylene yarns and fibers, and they are reinforced on one or both sides by a polypropylene netting. Landlok® TRMs are perfect for moderate-flow storm water channels, banks and steep slopes where both immediate and long-term erosion control is needed. Featuring our patented X3® fiber technology, TRMs trap more seed, soil and water in place than traditional hard armor products, for faster and fuller vegetation. X3 also provides enhanced reinforcement, giving your vegetation twice the erosion protection. All of our TRMs are made of 100% synthetic, ultraviolet (UV)-stabilized components and are completely non-degradable. High Performance Turf Reinforcement Mats Pyramat® HPTRMs are equipped to handle the most demanding erosion control applications. Patented Pyramat three-dimensional construction makes HPTRMs ten times stronger than traditional TRMs. The 3D matrix of polypropylene yarns features X3® fiber technology which locks in seed and soil for superior permanent erosion control. Pyramat’s outstanding UV resistance makes it the preferred TRM in arid and semi-arid environments or other applications where full vegetation is not expected. Geotex® nonwoven geotextiles are made from the highest quality polypropylene fibers and are needle-punched to form a dimensionally stable fiber network. Nonwoven geotextiles can be used for a variety of purposes, including subsurface drainage, separation, stabilization, erosion control and cushioning applications. Whether used in roadways, railroads or landfills, Geotex nonwoven geotextiles can add years to the life of your project. Manufactured with high tensile strength and low elongations, Geotex® woven geotextiles have superior capacity for filtration, load distribution, reducing rutting and extending the life of paved and unpaved roadways. Made from individually woven, ultraviolet (UV) resistant polypropylene fibers, Geotex woven geotextiles provide dimensional stability and they are resistant to UV degradation and to biological and chemical environments normally found in soils. When you’re facing separation, filtration, erosion protection and containment challenges, no better line of fabrics can match Geotex. Soil Reinforcement Geotextiles Woven with high-tenacity polyester and/or ultraviolet (UV) resistant polypropylene yarns, Geotex® soil reinforcement geotextiles are designed to hold up to the challenges of structural reinforcement in civil and environmental applications. Geotex’s unique strength makes it ideal for reinforcing embankments over any slope, as well as retaining walls, lagoon closures and landfill lining systems. Whatever the soil reinforcement application, Geotex is the more effective, more economical solution. Propex paving products are designed to extend the life of all paved areas—including highways, parking areas and airport pavements. All of our easy-to-install pavement products - Petromat®, Petrotac®, Pro-Guard® and PetroGrid® guard against moisture build-up while reinforcing the pavement and lowering the product life cycle costs by improving performance and reducing maintenance. When attached to posts and properly trenched into the soil, Geotex® silt fence fabrics will contain overland flow and screen soil particles from storm water runoff, allowing for efficient drainage and preventing environmental damage to adjacent areas. Geotex’s superior ultraviolet (UV) resistance and tensile strength make sure that our silt fence fabrics continuously perform throughout the entire life of the project.

Starting with just a few woven geotextiles, Propex has expanded a new approach to soil stabilization and began building not only the company, but the entire stabilization industry. From erosion control products for storm water management and site development to geotextiles for transportation and waste containment, Propex has established itself not only as a market leader, but as a geostabilization innovator. With such revolutionary technologies as Pyramat® High Performance Turf Reinforcement Mats—the revolutionary TRM with three-dimensional weaving technology and X3® fiber technology—with 40% more soil and seed trapping area, it is no wonder that Propex has left conventional soil stabilization solutions like rock riprap in the dust. All Propex products are proven to outperform conventional solutions. That’s because they are better designed for superior long-term performance as well as reduced installation and life cycle costs. With billions of square yards of Propex products installed around the world over the past several decades, Propex is established as the global leader in erosion control and geotextiles. That’s why we say if it involves stabilization, Propex has the performance solution. Propex—creating the advantages that make you more successful. |
