How To Extend The Service Life Of Geotextiles
Apr 24, 2026

The use of geotextile is very popular, but geotextile has its service life, so we need some methods to extend its service life, so that the use of geotextile can better meet our application needs.
In order to extend the service life of geotextiles, the exposure time of data in sunlight should be minimized as much as possible, and rock or deep water with a thickness greater than 30cm should be covered; According to the influence of light, oxygen, heat and other external factors on the product, anti-aging agents are added to the original data. Some geotextile manufacturers will add anti-aging agents to polypropylene. After four years of direct sunlight, the intensity will only decrease by 25%. If you do not add anti-aging agents, you will be exposed to sunlight for 2-3 months and the intensity will decrease.
Before laying the geotextile, the entire geotextile and the spliced part should be inspected, and repair marks should be made in a timely manner to prevent long-term strong light exposure in daily protection and keep away from water and high-temperature storage environments.
