Geotexan’s NT 15 non-woven geotextile, composed of 100% polypropylene virgin fibers, played a crucial role in transforming a 20,000 square meter area in Puembo, Pichincha, Ecuador, into a robust Equestrian Field. This project exemplifies the versatility and effectiveness of Geotexan geotextiles.
The geotextile performed multiple functions:
1. Separation: Prevented soil layer mixing, maintaining structural stability.
2. Filtration: Allowed water passage while retaining soil particles, improving drainage.
3. Drainage: Facilitated efficient water removal, preventing waterlogged conditions.
4. Reinforcement: Enhanced load-bearing capacity for the demands of equestrian activities.
5. Protection: Provided a protective layer, increasing the field’s longevity.
Geotexan’s NT 15 proved instrumental in creating a durable and sustainable equestrian infrastructure, meeting the specific needs of the Puembo community.
