A trusted partner to our clients, we draw together teams of project managers, engineers, production and field service managers, dedicated to sustainable solutions.
Irrigation provides communities with many benefits, including making agriculture a possibility at all in areas that were previously considered unsuitable for major crop production. In addition, it moves water to crops to increase yield, it keeps them cool in extreme heat and it prevents them from freezing. The need for irrigation is typically driven by providing a crop with enough water year over year. Some regions don't get enough rain to support economical crop growth. In other areas, irrigation is useful for the occasional drought.
Synthetex's HYDROTEX Fabric Formed Concrete solutions are used to construct a wide range of systems that provide outstanding performance in erosion control, scour protection and repair, foundation, environmental and marine construction applications. HYDROTEX linings are installed by positioning fabric forms over the areas to be protected and then pumping high-strength, fine aggregate concrete (structural grout) into the forms. The concrete lining can be placed either underwater or in-the-dry. The high-strength, fine aggregate concrete is used in place of conventional concrete because of its pumpability, strength, density, and absorption resistance.
Designed and manufactured in accordance with international standards to satisfy the widest range of performance requirements, HYDROTEX Fabric Formed Concrete erosion control and scour protection products are available in a variety of styles and sizes, and are used for both dry and wet (underwater) construction applications. In addition to erosion control and scour protection, HYDROTEX can be used for other diverse civil construction applications involving the casting of concrete. As a competitive differentiator, Synthetex's team of experts is committed to manufacturing your projects to your exact specifications.
Synthetex leads with support at the onset of a project, building on our staff's strong technical and interdisciplinary foundation in erosion control and scour protection solutions. Synthetex provides sustainable, innovative, cost-effective alternatives to conventional erosion control and scour protection practices, such as rip-rap and gabions, in civil construction; infrastructure, water, environmental and industrial, energy and natural resources. Conventional construction methods are generally time consuming and result in higher project costs.
