Geotextiles

• Woven Geotextiles
  
  • FX™ High Modulus Woven "Slit Film" Geotextiles
    
    Geotextiles for Separation, Stabilization and Medium Reinforcement in most paved and unpaved applications.
  • Woven "Monofilament" Geotextiles for Long Term Filtration and Drainage
    
    These geotextiles are specially woven with high Percent Open Areas (POA) for maximum resistance to clogging and were the first to be used and specified by the USACOE.
  • FX™ Woven "MF" Series of High Performance Geotextiles
    
    High strength geotextiles designed for those challenging applications when filtration/hydraulics, high durability, and higher tensile strengths at low strains are essential.
  • FX™ Woven "SRF" Series of High Performance Geotextiles
    These high performance geotextiles are specialty woven 'soil reinforcement' fabrics manufactured specifically for use in the construction of steepened slopes, embankments and wrapped-face retaining walls.
• Nonwoven Geotextiles
  
  • FX™ Nonwoven "HS" Series
    
    Often considered as 'multi-purpose' geotextiles, these fabrics offer solutions for many drainage, erosion control and filtration applications.
  • FX™ Nonwoven Asphalt Overlay Fabrics
    
    The "A/O" Series of asphalt overlay fabrics offers an economic solution to extending the useful life of pavement overlays.
• Standard Roll Sizes and Loading Information
• Manufacturers' Cross Reference Chart
• Miscellaneous Technical Information for Geotextiles
  
  • Geosynthetics? ...Some Good Things to Know!
    
    Candid commentary on Products, Properties, and Applications
  • Why Percent Open Area?
    
    Percent Open Area - Its History, Role, Function, and Importance in the Mechanics of Geotextile Filtration
  • Independent Research on Fabric Clogging
    
    What really matters in long-term filtration performance?
    Which of the four most standard fabric types best resist clogging?
    What is the best current means available to evaluate and quantify the clogging potential of geotextiles?
  • Carthage Mills' Qualified Products Under AASHTO M-288-00
    
    The American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) M-288-00 Specification lists physical properties for geosynthetics under varying soil conditions.

Earth Retention Systems

• Palisades™ Earth (MSE) Retention Systems
  
  Palisades™ was the first system of its kind to combine geosynthetic-reinforced earth with a welded wire form facing unit with nearly two decades and millions of square feet in service throughout the USA.
• Newcastle™ Segmental Retaining Walls
  
  The 'next generation' of SRW's with patented features not found in other systems.  (Link to Newcastle website)

Geogrids

• Raugrid™ Woven Geogrids
  
  Raugrid™ is woven of high tenacity polyester and coated with PVC. In addition to use in the construction of steepened slopes, these geogrids have been tested with every major SRW block for connection strengths and are system design ready.
• MS™ Multi-Layer Geogrids
  
  Extruded and biaxially oriented polypropylene geogrids fpr base reinforcement and other soil reinforcement applications.

Erosion Control & BMP's

• Erosion Control Blankets (ECB)
  
  Unlike loose fiber mulches, our Landlok® ECBs give your projects more dimensionally stable erosion protection that locks seed and soil in place. That stability encourages faster vegetation growth, allowing the root system to establish solid ground support. And all our ECBs are manufactured with a rapidly degrading net (RD), or a more environmentally friendly jute netting (EN).
• Turf Reinforcement Mats (TRM)
  
  Reinforcement is the only way vegetated channels and slopes can stand up to storm water. And Landlok® TRMs with advanced X3 fiber technology give you two key advantages over traditional hard armor products like rock riprap and concrete.
• High Performance Turf Reinforcement Mats (Pyramat® HPTRM)
  
  With >10 times the strength of standard TRMs, Pyramat® HPTRM tames even the steepest slope and aggressive storm water channel applications, making it the perfect alternative to rock riprap and other hard armor products - especially when faced with sandy soils, UV-exposed sites, utility cuts, and areas with maintenance vehicles.
• ECB & TRM Cross Reference Chart - "Functional Equivalents"
• ECB & TRM Design Values
• Anchor Patterns for Various Slopes and Applications
• Geotextiles for Silt Fence
  
  Carthage Mills' woven silt fence fabrics range from 'Contractor Grade' to AASHTO and DOT approved.
