Ultimat®
Ultimat is a needle punched nonwoven geotextile produced using either polypropylene or polyester fibers.
Ultimat nonwovens provide excellent puncture protection when placed above and below membrane liners used in reservoirs and in landfill applications. The wide width of up to 17 feet greatly reduces the installation costs when compared with typical nonwoven widths. Ultimat also provides superior separation between finer subgrade soils and typical base course extending the life of roadways. Using various denier staple fibers, Ultimat can be custom designed for capping applications where filtration of specific particle sizes is required.
