Geotextile

Geotex is a multi-layered membrane designed to prevent ground water penetration in any situation where internal walls are below external ground level. It is designed for use on the outside of the building on vertical elements prior to back-filling.

In most cases Geotex is designed to be used with Technoseal DPM as a primary foundation waterproof coating. In all cases it is essential that Geotex is installed in conjunction with Aquadrain – a perforated ground drain acting as a conduit for removal of drained water.
