Description
Africa’s Leading High Flow Monofilament Dewatering Textile
FlowTex™ 180 is a high - strength, high - flow Monofilament woven geotextile engineered for geotextile dewatering tubes, high - flow dewatering bags, and coastal protection systems including gyrons, breakwaters and revetments. Manufactured in ISO - certified facilities and supplied across Africa with expert installation support.
Key Features
- High flow capacity for rapid dewatering
- Precision filtration to retain fines while resisting clogging
- High tensile strength and puncture resistance
- Large 5.2 m × 100 m rolls reduce seams and speed up installation
Typical Applications
- Dewatering: mining slurries, wastewater sludge, industrial effluents
- Coastal & marine: sand - filled geotextile bags for gyrons, breakwaters, scour control

Need cut panels, sewn bags or full tube fabrication? Geosynthetics Africa offers rapid fabrication, delivery and installation across South Africa and the continent.
Supply, delivery and installation across Africa
Geosynthetics South Africa undertakes projects through three service options:
- Supply only - products supplied to the agreed specification.
- Supply and delivery - materials and logistics coordinated to your project site.
- Supply, delivery and QA/QC-controlled installation - one coordinated scope from procurement to documented handover.
For projects across Africa, we coordinate with the Geosynthetics Africa Group to mobilise installation crews from group companies across the continent. Materials, delivery, mobilisation and project-specific quality records are agreed as part of the project scope.

Supply, delivery & installation
South African supply
We are the South African supplier of FlowTex dewatering bags and tubes. Ready-stock standard options are available, with project-specific fabrication for the sizes and details your works require.
Delivery & cross-border supply
We supply FlowTex dewatering bags and tubes across South Africa and Southern Africa, including cross-border delivery. We coordinate site access, unloading and cross-border documentation for your order.
How we install
We install FlowTex dewatering bags and tubes. Prepare a contained, drained dewatering platform and position the bag or tube. Connect the filling ports and confirm sludge and polymer compatibility through the specified trial. Control pumping and fill height, manage filtrate and inspect seams throughout filling.

SELECTION · SPECIFICATION · PROJECT SUPPLY
Choose the right specification
Choose the system around the solids, water conditions, containment duty and available working space.
- For dewatering, provide slurry characteristics, flow and required filtrate quality; representative trials may be needed.
- For curtains or containment articles, define flow, depth, exposure, geometry and anchorage or filling conditions.
- Confirm fabric, dimensions, seams, connections, handling and operating limits for the actual system.
Define the quality records
Retain material and fabrication records, inspect deployment and connections, and agree operating inspections and acceptance criteria.
For a useful quotation: send the grade or performance specification, quantity, location, required date and scope. Availability, delivery and installation responsibilities are confirmed in the quotation.
