Geotextile supplier & installer in Malaysia.
Our group sister company Starwall Sdn Bhd (same ownership as Infraconcrete) is the sole appointed Malaysia distributor of STRATA Geosystems. StrataTex HSR high-strength woven polyester (PET) for basal reinforcement on soft ground. Nonwoven polypropylene (PP) for separation, filtration, and drainage. Tensile grades 20-1000 kN/m for HSR. Designed to BS 8006, ASTM D4595, ISO 10319, AASHTO M288, JKR. Supply + design + install, single-point accountability. CIDB G7. ISO 9001:2015.
Woven HSR + nonwoven.
StrataTex HSR, Woven (PET)
High-strength reinforcement woven from polyester yarns. Designed for tensile load. Basal mats under embankments on soft ground, fill reinforcement behind retaining walls, paved-road sub-base reinforcement. Grades 20-1000 kN/m. Roll widths typically 5 m, lengths 100-200 m.
Nonwoven (PP)
Needle-punched polypropylene. Designed for filtration & separation, not tensile. Separation between fill and subgrade, filter around perforated drains, drainage protection of geomembrane, cushion under riprap. Mass typically 150-600 g/m². Selected by AOS (apparent opening size) and permittivity.
Six core applications.
Basal reinforcement on soft ground
StrataTex HSR woven laid horizontally below an embankment fill on soft clay or peat. Spreads load, prevents bearing-capacity failure and lateral spread. Common on Malaysian port reclamation, ECRL/highway approaches over alluvial deposits, plantation embankments.
Separation
Nonwoven between sub-base aggregate and weak subgrade. Prevents fines from migrating up into the aggregate, preserves drainage, extends pavement life. Standard on plantation, mining haul, parking platforms.
Filtration
Nonwoven wrap around perforated subsurface drains, French drains, horizontal drains. Lets water pass, holds back fines. AOS sized to soil grading.
Drainage protection
Nonwoven cushion above geomembrane in landfill caps and pond liners. Prevents puncture by overlying drainage aggregate. Mass typically 400-600 g/m² for puncture resistance.
Reinforced fill behind walls
StrataTex HSR woven layered into compacted fill behind RE / MSE walls. Either as primary reinforcement (cheaper grades) or as secondary mat at the wall connection.
Erosion control under riprap
Nonwoven cushion below stone riprap on bridge piers, river training, channel lining. Prevents soil washout while letting water pass.
