Eco-Friendly Geotextile Sand Bag for Erosion Control, Riverbank Protection, Mine Site Restoration, And Landscape Greening Projects

Geotextile bags, also known as geobags, are eco-friendly synthetic materials engineered with high resistance to UV radiation, acids, alkalis, and corrosion. Originally developed for coastal and hydraulic engineering, geotextile applications have since expanded significantly into various fields of civil and environmental engineering. In recent years, geobag technology has seen rapid growth and has been widely adopted in successful large-scale projects.
Today, geobags are commonly used as construction elements for erosion control, bottom scour protection, artificial reef construction, groynes, dams, seawalls, revetments, dune reinforcement, and shoreline stabilization. These bags are typically filled with sand or soil and are made from durable needle-punched nonwoven geotextiles, offering a cost-effective and environmentally responsible alternative to traditional "hard" coastal protection materials such as rock, steel, and concrete.

By encapsulating sand within geotextile units, geobags provide versatile, adaptive, and sustainable solutions for coastal and river engineering. Especially on sandy beaches or morphologically sensitive areas, geobags function as "soft rock structures" that can flexibly respond to hydrodynamic forces, tidal variations, and seabed changes, thereby ensuring structural integrity while preserving the natural landscape.
