Mirafi® S41 Geotextile Sand Bag - 0.55m x 0.30m (40kg, 10kN Tensile)

Description

The Mirafi® S41 Geobag is a small, professional - grade nonwoven geotextile sandbag engineered for quick deployment in flood response and erosion control projects across South Africa and Africa. Sized 0.55m x 0.30m and typically filled to about 40kg, it is light enough for manual handling while providing reliable stabilisation for streambanks, canal edges, culvert outlets, and landscaped slopes. Manufactured from 100% virgin polypropylene nonwoven geotextile, the fabric allows water to pass while retaining soil particles, reducing undermining and localized scour.

S41 geobags are supplied flat for efficient logistics, then filled on site with locally available sand-ideal where access is limited and response times matter. Typical uses include temporary flood berms, protection of newly trimmed embankments, and lining of small channels during construction. The flexible nonwoven conforms to uneven ground for close contact and reduced under - seepage, and can be stacked in running bond to improve stability.

Geosynthetics Africa is a leading supplier and installer of geotextile sandbags on the continent, supporting municipalities, contractors, and communities with fast turnaround, technical guidance, and practical installation methods that align with local budgets and timelines.

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.
