Geotextile Tubes

Geotextile Tubes are used as a costeffective alternative to mitigate erosion on coastal shorelines, riverbanks, and lakes using readily available materials for infill. Geotextile Tubes filled with dredgedmaterials or sand and strategically placed will dissipatethe wave energy, as well as provide structural supportagainst other erosive forces. Geotextile Tubes can beset in place along shorelines and river fronts either tobe left exposed to battle the elements, or incorporatedinto the environment as part of a manmade dune orriverbank. They can also be placed in the water toserve as jetties and groins.
