Geonet

A geonet is a sheet of crossed ribs forming an open three-dimensional structure. Its porosity carries liquids and gases within the plane of the sheet. Bonded to a geotextile on one or both faces it becomes a drainage geocomposite.

Key features

  • Open structure

    The crossed ribs hold a constant drainage void, even under load.

  • In-plane drainage

    Flow is carried laterally, replacing a substantial thickness of granular drainage material.

  • Durable material

    HDPE resists the chemical agents found in soils and in leachate.

Typical uses

  • Landfill blanket drainage
  • Gas venting beneath a liner
  • Drainage behind a retaining wall
  • Slope drainage
