TenCate Geosynthetics introduces Debris Shield technology for TenCate Geotube® containers
09 August 2011

TenCate Geosynthetics Americas has developed a patent pending innovation that provides extra impact resistance to TenCate Geotube® containers that help protect shorelines, rebuild beaches and reclaim land from bodies of water.

The Debris Shield of TenCate Geosynthetics is a specially engineered composite geotextile providing impact resistance by dissipating energy from an impact force from water-carried debris. This new technology provides additional protection against vandalism, UV radiation and abrasion. The Debris Shield will protect TenCate Geotube® containers and thereby extend their useful service life.
