TerraTex HD is engineered for stabilization applications in very severe soil conditions. It is designed to withstand extremely demanding installation conditions. TerraTex HD not only provides stabilization to poor soils but also prevents fines from contaminating the good fill material placed on top of the fabric. This separation is essential to the long term performance of your system.
