{"product_id":"geosaco","title":"Geobag","description":"\u003cp\u003eBuilding temporary flood barriers with materials available on site, stabilizing a slope or riverbank after flood damage, or erecting a provisional retaining wall without specialized machinery or concrete block transportation, requires a resistant geotextile geobag that is filled on-site with local soil, sand, or gravel. This geobag—also called a \u003cstrong\u003egeotextile sandbag\u003c\/strong\u003e, geobag, or geotextile sand sack—is manufactured by MOLTEXO with 400 g\/m² geotextile in black, dimensions 40x80 cm, a package of 50 units, designed for riverbank protection, erosion control, emergency flood barriers, and slope stabilization in civil and hydraulic engineering works.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFilled with local material without block transport:\u003c\/strong\u003e It is filled with soil, sand, or gravel available directly at the construction site, eliminating transport logistics and the cost of concrete blocks or gabions, a decisive advantage in remote areas or emergencies where heavy equipment access is unavailable.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eControlled permeability with fine particle retention:\u003c\/strong\u003e The geotextile allows water to drain freely, reducing the hydrostatic pressure of saturated fill, while retaining the fine particles of the internal material, a critical condition for walls exposed to continuous rain without pressure accumulation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUV resistance for extended use:\u003c\/strong\u003e The 400 g\/m² geotextile incorporates calibrated UV-HALS additives to withstand direct Caribbean sun exposure for seasons or years, a condition for extensive temporary use or partially exposed walls.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdaptation to irregular terrain:\u003c\/strong\u003e The bag conforms to curves, unevenness, and non-flat ground shapes, a differentiating condition compared to rigid blocks that require a perfectly level base and precise maneuvering.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStackable in stable block-type walls:\u003c\/strong\u003e Geobags are stacked in alternate courses (staggered joints like masonry) creating stable walls several meters high, a condition for permanent use on slopes and flood barriers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eApplications and Typical Uses\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEmergency barriers against floods and river surges in urban and agricultural areas.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProtection of riverbanks, canal edges, and coastal areas against erosion by water flow.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConstruction of temporary or permanent retaining walls in road and landscaping projects.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReinforcement of coasts, beaches, and protection of structures against moderate waves or static flows.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eQuality and Durability\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn economical geobag fails in two ways: the geotextile is of low grammage (which tears with the weight of the fill and friction with stones during filling) and lacks adequate UV additive (which becomes brittle in the sun and breaks in a few months when exposed). MOLTEXO works with 400 g\/m² geotextile with calibrated UV additive, which distinguishes a professional construction geobag from a generic bag that breaks during filling or disintegrates within the first month of exposure to the Caribbean sun.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"background-color: #F3F6F3; padding: clamp(14px, 4vw, 18px); margin-top: 20px; font-size: 0.9em; color: #555555; border-radius: 8px;\"\u003e\n  \u003cstrong style=\"color: #006902;\"\u003eAlso known as:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003eTechnical:\u003c\/strong\u003e geobag, geotextile sandbag, geobag, geotextile bag, geotechnical bag.\n  \u003cstrong\u003eIn DR and Caribbean:\u003c\/strong\u003e geosaco, geocostal, saco geotextil, saco geotécnico.\n  \u003cstrong\u003eIn other countries:\u003c\/strong\u003e sandbag (USA), geobag (USA), geotextile sandbag (USA), geocostal (LATAM), earthbag (USA), saco-tubo (LATAM), geotextile bag (ES).\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"MOLTEXO","offers":[{"title":"Geotextile 400 g\/m², black \/ 40 x 80 cm (16 x 31 in) \/ Pack of 50 geotextile bags","offer_id":52753999167816,"sku":"412345","price":13500.0,"currency_code":"DOP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0916\/9751\/2776\/files\/geosaco-geotextil-negro-control-erosion.png?v=1778208640","url":"https:\/\/dodom.com\/en\/products\/geobag","provider":"Dodom","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
