SKAPS TRANSNET (TN)
HDPE Geonet/Geotextile Composite

SKAPS Transnet geocomposites typically consist of SKAPS GeoNet with nonwoven polyproplyne geotextile fabric heat-bonded to one or both sides. The geotextile serves as a filter to prevent the geonet from clogging while the geonet provides a path for fluids (liquids and gases). Geocomposites may also be used as a cushion to protect a geomembrane from unduly rough substrates. SKAPS TransNet is designed specifically for use in situations where high normal loads are expected, such as in landfill cell design.
