SUNTECH® provides efficient solutions to the challenges encountered in the Railway construction projects.
Problem Identified
The pumping action generated by the passing of railway traffic over the track can cause the rapid deterioration of the ballast and the breakdown of the granular support given by the ballast to the sleepers.
Recommended Products
- SUNTECH® NON – WOVEN GEOTEXTILE
- SUNTECH® WOVEN GEOTEXTILES

Used for
- Reinforcement of blanket/sub-ballast, ballast
- Subsurface drainage
Problem Identified
In traditional road making the contamination of the road foundation by underlying subsoil material reduces the load bearing capacity and drainage characteristics of the granular fill material.

Problem Identified
River water fluctuates between lower water level and higher water level. This causes seepage in and out of the bank slopes. Further the seeping water also removes the fine soil particles especially with receding flows which lead to the failure of bank slope.

Problem Identified
Landfill continues to provide one of the main forms of disposal for domestic and industrial waste. Such applications require high quality densely needle-punched nonwoven geotextiles to protect the more sensitive geomembrane liners.
Water infiltration can lead to deterioration and substantial damage of structural and functional components, especially in transportation tunnels. Consideration must be given to intercepting and collecting leakage before damage occurs. Tunnels require special multi-layer lining systems which have to fulfill various requirements.
