The Novecrafto Geotextile Membrane is an essential solution for landscapers, DIY enthusiasts, and contractors looking to ensure longevity in groundworks and drainage projects. Its primary benefit is the combination of high-rate water permeability and effective soil filtration, which prevents the mixing of layers and sub-base failure. However, users should note that as a 100 GSM membrane, it is designed for stabilization and separation rather than heavy-duty weed suppression or root-barrier protection against aggressive invasive species.

Yes, it acts as a great separation layer that prevents the sand or stone dust base from mixing with the native soil.
While it can inhibit some weed growth by blocking light, it is primarily designed for drainage and separation rather than as a heavy-duty weed suppressant.
This is a 100 GSM (grams per square meter) membrane, which provides a good balance of strength and permeability.
It is intended for sub-surface use. It should be covered with aggregate or paving soon after installation to prevent UV degradation.
We recommend an overlap of at least 150mm to 300mm to ensure proper separation between soil and aggregates.
Use landscaping ground pegs or staples to secure the fabric to the soil until the aggregate layer is applied.
Ensure your utility blade is sharp; a dull blade will tear the fabric rather than cut it cleanly.
Before laying the membrane, clear the ground of any sharp objects, large stones, or roots that could puncture the fabric. Ensure the surface is relatively level to improve installation efficiency. When rolling out the material, it is critical to overlap the edges by at least 150mm to 300mm, ensuring continuous coverage and preventing soil migration through gaps. If you are working on a slope, start at the bottom and work upwards to ensure the higher strip overlaps the lower strip. The membrane is compatible with most standard landscaping aggregates, including pea shingle, crushed limestone, and granite chippings. For care, keep the roll stored in a dry, covered area away from direct UV sunlight exposure until it is ready for use, as extended UV exposure can degrade synthetic fibers.
