Product Description
Our nonwoven geotextiles are mechanically bonded continuous
filament nonwovens made from 100% UV stabilized polypropylene. They
have been used for decades as separation, protection and filtration
elements in a large number of applications, adding years to the
life of any roadway, railroad, landfill or civil / environmental
engineering project. They are robust and long lasting. The
manufacturing method (a continuous process with endless filaments)
guarantees the use of high-quality raw materials.
Zhonglu nonwovens are resistant to all chemical and biological
media usually occuring in soils and construction materials. It
cannot be dissolved by water and therefore is harmless to ground
water. They are equipped with a UV-stabilizer, providing extended
resistance to direct sunlight.

Geotextile Installations Instructions
How to install geotextile fabric
Let us show you how easy the installation is and provide a few
useful tips along the way. In our example,
Step 1 - Prep the road surface
First, you will need to excavate the roadway to the desired
elevation. Then fully compact your subgrade, making sure you have
removed all air and tightened the soil completely.
Step 2 - Unroll the reinforcement geotextile fabric
Roll the geotextile fabric on the compacted subgrade, making sure
it's free of wrinkles and folds. Overlap your fabric as directed by
the engineer. Cherokee can pre-sew the fabric for you if a stitch
seam is required. Contact your Cherokee representative to get
pricing on factory seamed rolls in a wider widths.
Step 3 - Sew the geotextile fabric
This job required the fabric to be stitched on the job site. The
fabric needs to be seamed with a dual thread lock stitch to prevent
it from unthreading. We have equipment available for purchase or
rental to do the stitching on the job. At the engineers discretion
you can choose a prayer seam, j-seam, or butterfly seam. In this
example we will be using a j-seam. We recommend doing two stitches
on each seam to prevent any failure during installation.
Step 4 - Apply Aggregate
Place your aggregate to the specified thickness, ensuring that no
equipment drives directly on the engineered fill. Make sure the
fill has reached full compaction before the final step.
Step 5 - Lay Asphalt
Now that you have placed your subbase you are ready for your
pavement layer (or layers depending on the project type).
