The Tiltex system from GEOmasta is a composite 40mpa concrete geotextile that is supplied on a roll. This is laid out on site, hydrated and left to dry, providing a simple and effective lining for V drains, embankments, channels and spillways or as an alternative to shotcrete.
Tiltex is a needle punched composite, consisting of concrete-sand mix, embedded and fixed between two layers of geo-textile. It is much faster and cheaper to install than conventional materials, and our strict quality control of raw materials makes the finished product fail-proof. It provides a substrate for direct applications of a thin protective layer of regular concrete, which may be used in various weather conditions. The fabric is fastened to an outer part with nails, which provides a solid water-resistant surface stabilisation, further braced thanks to internal reinforcing fibers.
An additional advantage of the Tiltex System is that there is no need for special installation equipment. It is much faster and cheaper than conventional materials used in the lining of ditches, reservoirs, slopes banks and trenches.
