TenCate Polyfelt® DC is a geocomposite consisting of a geonet and a filter nonwoven on one or on both sides. The geonet is made from high density polyethylene (HDPE), the filter nonwoven consists of polypropylene (PP).
TenCate Polyfelt® DC is characterised by low compressibility, and is therefore used in situations where effective drainage under high overburden pressures is required.
