Enhancing Railway Drainage Systems with Secutex® Filtration Geotextiles

Effective drainage is crucial in railway construction to maintain track stability and longevity. Naue’s Secutex® nonwoven geotextiles serve as efficient filtration elements within drainage systems, preventing soil particles from entering and clogging drainage materials. This ensures the continuous and efficient removal of water from track structures.

Key Features:

  • High Permeability: Allows for rapid water flow while retaining soil particles, maintaining the functionality of the drainage system.
  • Robust Soil Retention: Prevents the migration of fine particles, reducing the risk of clogging and ensuring long-term performance.
  • Durability: Resistant to mechanical damage and environmental factors, ensuring longevity and reduced maintenance needs.

By integrating Secutex® geotextiles into railway drainage systems, infrastructure projects can achieve enhanced durability and performance, ensuring efficient water management and prolonged track life.

Secutex® 151 GRK 3

Functions:

  • Separation layer between pipe bedding and fine-grained subgrade

  • Filtration geotextile wrapped around the gravel aggregate water collector to prevent infiltration of fines from the surrounding soil and clogging of the collector

Advantages:

  • Robust against typical installation conditions
  • Flexible and adjusts easily to normal soil irregularities
  • Longterm filter performance due thicker nonwoven thickness
