GTI® GX Jute Geotextile
GTI GX Jute Geotextiles (JGT) is a natural variant of man-made geotextiles loosely called ‘Geo-synthetics’. JGT has been used successfully to address a host of geo-technical problems. GTI GX JGT is capable of reducing the erosive effects of raindrops while controlling soil wash away from exposed surfaces. JGT degrades naturally & forms mulch that fosters quick vegetative growth. Choosing the right type of JGT and plant species plays a critical role in achieving effective results.
Different types of JGT with their salient properties that can be applied on embankment slopes of railways and of a hill along the railway tracks.
Species of vegetation needs to be selected in sync with local soil and climatic conditions. GTI GX JGT incidentally, does not draw upon nitrogenous reserves with its degradation and its fibrous residue improves the soil structure.
