A better alternative to geocells, prefabricated concrete blocks, and gabion baskets, HYDROTEX permanent erosion control systems are easy to install and customize.
The HYDROTEX geotextiles, or fabric forms, are laid across the downchute and pumped with fine aggregate concrete, creating a mattress with a designe thickness and mass per unit area.
How is HYDROTEX used for downchute protection?
The Problem
Downchutes are a critical element in landfill and waste management, and without proper protection, they can be costly to maintain.
An improperly protected downchute is an investment gone to waste. The earth will erode, costing millions in repair costs.
The Solution: HYDROTEX Fabric Forms for the In-Situ Casting of Concrete
Use HYDROTEX fabric formworks to cast a concrete mattress that conforms to the shape of the downchute, preventing erosion and allowing the transported water to flow much more efficiently.

Downchute Protection for Landfills
Downchutes are the part of the landfill that aids in wastewater drainage and leachate management. Because of the hydraulic action, the downchute must be protected with a system that relieves hydrostatic pressure and minimizes soil loss. HYDROTEX fabric-formed concrete is the best solution to protect downchutes from damage and erosion.
