    Mirafi® Nonwoven Geotextile Filter Fabric

    Premium Drainage and Filtration with Mirafi® N-Series Geotextiles

    In addition to our standard 8 oz nonwoven geotextile fabric, we offer Mirafi® N-Series polypropylene nonwoven geotextiles, an industry-leading choice for drainage, filtration, and soil separation.

    Key Benefits of Mirafi® N-Series Geotextiles:

    • Superior Conformability: Needle-punched construction allows the fabric to easily conform to ground surfaces, trenches, and irregular contours, ensuring full contact and optimal performance.
    • High Flow-Through Rate: Engineered for maximum permeability while maintaining filtration efficiency, ideal for French drains and sub-surface drainage systems.
    • Consistent Filtration: Eliminates the need to match aggregate gradation to soil type, saving time and reducing complexity in drainage design.
    • Enhanced Durability: Excellent resistance to installation damage, UV exposure, and biological degradation.

    Common Applications for Mirafi® N-Series:

    • French drains
    • Trench drains and sub-surface drainage
    • Soil separation
    • Filtration and drainage around retaining walls
    • Roadway drainage and stabilization

    8 oz Nonwoven Geotextiles Applications

    Nonwoven geotextiles can be used in a wide range of applications to help with separation, filtration, drainage, ground reinforcement, and even cushioning protection. Made from polypropylene fibers, 8 oz geo filter fabric offers a high resistance to UV exposure, rotting and other factors to help increase longevity in the field. Non Woven Geotextile Fabric (8 oz) is commonly used for applications such as:

    • Slope Reinforcement
    • Landfill Lining
    • Pond Reinforcement
    • Retaining Structures
    • French Drains
    • Cushioning Underlayment
    • Ground Stabilization
    • Filtering & Drainage
    • Road Construction
    • Railroad Repairs
    • Shoreline Stabilization

    Installation Guidelines For Optimal Performance:

  • Prepare the subgrade by removing debris and ensuring a smooth surface.
  • Unroll the geotextile fabric over the prepared area, ensuring full contact with the subgrade.
  • Overlap adjacent sheets by at least 12 inches to prevent gaps.
  • Secure the fabric with appropriate staples or pins, especially along overlaps and edges.
  • Proceed with the placement of overlying materials, such as aggregate or soil.
  • For projects that need fabric with greater strength and less filtration, consider Woven Geotextiles as a possible solution.

    8 oz Nonwoven Geotextiles Frequently Asked Questions

    Nonwoven geotextiles are made from needle-punched polypropylene and designed for filtration, drainage, and separation. They allow water to pass through while retaining soil particles. Woven geotextiles have a stronger tensile strength and are primarily used for stabilization and reinforcement, with less water permeability.

    These categories refer to the fabric weight (oz/yd²) and application type:

    • Lightweight (3–5 oz): High flow, drainage-focused
    • Medium weight (6–8 oz): Balanced strength and filtration
    • Heavy weight (10–16 oz): High strength for tough conditions
