Geotextile
Geotextile non-woven material GEOTEKS
Covering agricultural light-stabilised canvas GEOTEKS produced using the modern technology spunbond.
A high-quality cloth.
GEOTEKS has a high degree of density homogeneity. GEOTEKS consists of an increased amount of high-quality protective UV-stabiliser, which ensures its increased service life.
The canvas creates a microclimate with optimally supported temperatures, as well as ensures even distribution of rainfall and constant air circulation. GEOTEKS is pervious; at the same time, it does not become heavier from the water and will not damage even the most tender shoots. The canvas has been tested by the Research Institute for Non-Woven Materials. GEOTEKS boasts durability and can be used during a number of seasons: it is an environmentally friendly product accompanied by sanitary certificate.
Specially for mulching, the company has developed GEOTEKS with the addition of carbon black, which gives the material a black colour, so that the material absorbs a large amount of light and effectively inhibits the growth of weeds.
Using GEOTEKS, there is no need to use chemicals. The use of GEOTEKS in agriculture can significantly increase yields and content of nutrients, thereby ensuring the best taste of cultivated products.
Results of use in agriculture
IN SPRING
- earlier start of sowing and/ or crop planting;
- reliable protection in adverse weather conditions and from night frosts (down to -9°C);
- protection from insects, pests, and birds;
- ensuring plant growth in conditions of physiological drought (from 0 to + 8°C), i.e., when in the open ground, roots cannot get moisture from the soil.
IN SUMMER
- protection from insects, pests, and birds;
- reliable protection in adverse weather conditions;
- reduction of water loss from the soil during the dry season;
- protection against overheating and direct sunlight in hot weather taking into account sufficient light transmission;
IN AUTUMN
- reliable protection in adverse weather conditions;;
- earlier harvests in spring;
- protection from sudden fall frosts;
- replacement of snow cover in late autumn, reliable protection against low temperatures;
IN WINTER
- protection of crops from heavy frosts (berry plants, crops of garlic, etc.);
- in the case of winter with little snow, frost protection of shrubs and buds;
- withstands thick snow cover;
