Landscape Fabric Specifications

  • Tough spunbonded polypropylene fabric separates subgrade from aggregate base. Porous fabric lets water drain through, keeps soil in place.
  • The ideal soil-separating nonwoven fabric for all construction uses.
    • No matter what your needs, Typar offers a fast, economical and proven alternative to more traditional and expensive construction methods.
    • As rugged separation layers, geotextiles provide stability and strength by virtually stopping the aggregate and subgrade intermixing that reduces the effective thickness of aggregate base layers, and consequently their load-bearing capability.
    • Tough, durable Typar offers a number of benefits:
      • Prevents aggregate from intermixing with subsoil
      • Prevents ruts and cracks on roads and driveways
      • Prevents soil piping and clogging for better drainage
      • Prevents erosion
