DEWATERING TRENCHES

Planteco geotextiles protect the drain system by preventing mixing of fines and thanks to its high
permeability, act as a filter.

Water needs to be effectively controlled and evacuated in ground engineering structures if their function is not to be impaired. Traditionally, water has been controlled and evacuated using graded natural materials in systems such as sand drains, soakaways or others. Planteco geotextile can replace these natural materials, and thanks to its high permeability, act as a filter. This ensuring that the drainage system does not clog.

Planteco Garden nonwovens

Tessilbrenta's Planteco is a complete range of high quality nonwovens geotextiles for professional gardeners.

It keeps weeds and root under control without the use of chemical additives, protects plants, stabilizes ground
of trafficked areas and acts as filter in the dewatering trenches.

HIGH PERMEABILITY

Rainwater reaches roots without any obstacles

HIGH POROSITY

It lets the soil breath.

HIGH MECHANICAL RESISTANCE

Its needled felt structure prevents roots penetration and resist to mechanical stress very well.

Planteco is made of high tenacity fibres (100% polypropylene).
It has a unique porous structure which allows water and nutritious liquid substances pass through the ground and reach roots.
It is chemically inert, does not decompose with any kind of soil (acid or alkaline).

Filtering system

Planteco lets water goes through easily, but also allows a successfully filtration of fine particles of soil and subsequently prevent clogging of drain pipes.
