# Protective Cushioning and Filtration with Ocean Non Woven Geotextile 285 GSM in Srinagar Landfill Project

May 9, 2026 | [Case Studies](https://oceangeosynthetics.com/category/case-studies/), [Geotextile](https://oceangeosynthetics.com/category/geotextile/)

## Introduction

Geotextiles are among the most important yet least discussed components in landfill engineering systems. While geomembranes provide impermeability, geotextiles play a critical role in protection, filtration, drainage, and separation.

At the Srinagar Landfill Project in Uttarakhand, Ocean Non Wovens supplied Ocean Non Woven Geotextile 285 GSM across 1800 SQM to support landfill containment infrastructure.

## Project Overview

- Project Type: Landfill Project
- Location: Srinagar
- Product Used: Ocean Non Woven Geotextile 285 GSM
- Quantity: 1800 SQM

## Role of Geotextiles in Landfill Systems

### Primary Functions of Geotextiles

- Cushion protection
- Filtration
- Separation
- Drainage support
- Stress distribution

The geotextile layer protected the HDPE liner from puncture damage caused by subgrade irregularities.

## Hidden Risks in Landfill Infrastructure

One issue rarely discussed openly is puncture failure caused by inadequate cushioning layers.

Even small stones beneath a geomembrane can eventually damage the liner under waste loading pressure.

The geotextile layer helped distribute stress and improve long-term liner safety.

## Installation Challenges

Geotextile installation may appear simple, but field conditions create several complexities including:

- Alignment management
- Overlap control
- Wind exposure
- Surface irregularities
- Moisture-related handling difficulties

Proper overlap lengths and wrinkle control are essential.

## Long-Term Benefits of Non Woven Geotextiles

- Drainage efficiency
- Liner protection
- Structural stability
- Filtration performance
- System durability

## Conclusion

The Srinagar Landfill Project highlights the critical role of geotextiles in environmental containment systems. Through the supply of Ocean Non Woven Geotextile 285 GSM, Ocean Non Wovens contributed to improving landfill safety, drainage efficiency, and long-term durability.

Ocean Non Wovens continues to deliver reliable geosynthetic products engineered for infrastructure, landfill, irrigation, and environmental applications throughout India.
