HydraNet Geonet/Geocomposite

Layfield now manufactures geonet and can offer a wide range of geonet and geocomposites under our HydraNet™ brand of drainage products. Layfield’s HydraNet™ is designed as a cost effective and environmentally conscious alternative to aggregate drains for a variety of applications. HydraNet™ can effectively transmit fluids and gasses while taking up much less space compared to a sand, stone or gravel layer. In double lined containment applications, HydraNet™ is commonly used to create an interstitial space between two geomembrane liners as part of a leak detection system. HydraNet™ geocomposites have a geotextile bonded to one, or to both sides of a geonet. The addition of laminated geotextile layers prevents the movement of soil fines into the  drainage path that could otherwise lead to clogging and reduced drainage performance longer term. Layfield’s HydraNet™ geonet is made in North America at our ISO 9001 certified facility.
