Product Information

Full details

The Novecrafto Non Woven Geotextile Membrane is an essential tool for landscapers and homeowners aiming to increase the structural integrity and longevity of ground-based projects. Featuring a 100 GSM construction, this membrane excels at separating sub-base layers, improving drainage, and suppressing weed growth beneath driveways, patios, and artificial grass. While highly effective for stability and drainage, it is important to note that this product is not designed for heavy-duty structural load-bearing projects that require thicker, higher GSM specifications.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this membrane UV resistant?

While the material is durable, it is designed to be installed beneath a top layer. Prolonged direct exposure to intense sunlight should be avoided to maximize its lifespan.

Can I use this under a driveway with heavy vehicle traffic?

It provides excellent separation for residential driveways, but ensure your sub-base depth is correct according to local building guidelines for heavy loads.

Does this prevent all weeds?

It significantly inhibits weed growth by acting as a physical barrier. However, weeds may occasionally grow from seeds deposited on top of the surface material.

How do I join two sheets together?

Overlap the edges by at least 15-20cm. For higher stability, you can use landscaping pegs to pin the overlapping sections together.

Is it safe to use with plants?

Yes, it is permeable and safe for soil health, allowing water and nutrients to pass through to the roots while keeping unwanted weeds away.

Troubleshooting

Membrane tearing during installation

Clear the ground of sharp rocks, roots, or sticks before laying the fabric; use a blunt-tip tool to press it down if necessary.

Water pooling on the surface

Ensure the underlying ground is sloped for drainage and that the membrane is not covered with non-porous materials that could trap water.

Weeds growing through at the edges

Ensure adequate overlapping between membrane panels or increase the edge burial depth to prevent weed encroachment.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Prevents sub-base and soil migration
  • Excellent water permeability for drainage
  • Lightweight and easy to handle
  • Provides reliable weed suppression
  • Extends the lifespan of landscaping surfaces

Cons

  • Not intended for heavy-load industrial ground reinforcement
  • Requires proper surface preparation to perform effectively
  • Fixed dimensions may require overlapping for larger areas

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, ensure the ground is level and free of large, sharp debris that might puncture the fabric. Unroll the membrane over the area, ensuring an overlap of at least 15-20cm if using multiple strips to maintain a continuous barrier. Secure the edges with landscape staples if working on sloped terrain. The material can be easily cut using a standard heavy-duty utility knife or garden shears. No specific maintenance is required; simply ensure that the membrane remains covered by your chosen top layer (gravel, sand, or pavers) to protect it from long-term UV degradation.
