ACETex® ES – High Performance Geotextile Fabric for Roadways and Base Stabilization
High-Modulus PP Woven Geotextile with Advanced Hydraulic Performance
ACETex® ES is a high-performance woven geotextile fabric uniquely designed for modern construction applications, especially in challenging environments. Engineered from high tenacity polypropylene yarns, this high-modulus and high-water-flow geotextile offers immediate structural support and long-term performance across a wide variety of site conditions, making it ideal for demanding applications such as soil stabilization, reinforcement, and erosion control in severe or complex scenarios. Designed to provide reinforcement, separation, and filtration, ACETex® ES excels in stabilizing soft soils, improving greater load distribution, and enhancing drainage. Its higher tensile modulus properties and consistent flow characteristics make it ideal for climate-sensitive and high-demand infrastructure development, from rural access roads to large-scale energy platforms.
By delivering exceptional strength, reinforcement strength, filtration properties, increased water flow, and durability even under severe site conditions, ACETex® ES performs where standard fabrics often fail. It supports consistent load distribution, soil interaction, and base course reinforcement across varying installation environments. The product is highly resistant to biological degradation, naturally encountered chemicals, and installation damages, ensuring a long service life with minimal maintenance. Its engineered properties align with demanding construction specifications, offering both technical and environmental benefits in stabilization projects as a superior geotextile fabric.
ACETex® ES is commonly used in these applications:
- Reinforcement and filtration in paved and unpaved roads
- Subgrade stabilization in soft, wet, or expansive soils as a stabilization fabric
- Soil reinforcement and stabilization of soft foundations in infrastructure projects
- Working platforms and construction access roads for wind turbine installation and maintenance
- Separation between base layers and unstable subgrades
- Support for permeable pavement and green infrastructure
- Geogrid replacement in low-bearing-capacity foundations
- Temporary construction pads, haul routes, and staging areas
- Access roads for mining and forestry operations
- Foundation stability for embankments, levees, energy platforms, and slopes

Features
Integrated Structural Performance
ACETex® ES is designed to deliver essential geotechnical functions—reinforcement, filtration, and separation—in one efficient woven geotextile fabric. With high tensile modulus and low elongation, it provides immediate structural support, stabilizes soft soils, and distributes loads uniformly across base courses. This makes it ideal for diverse construction settings requiring robust subgrade stabilization and consistent load-bearing capacity.
Exceptional Hydraulic Behavior
ACETex® ES features a high-flow pore structure that enables effective drainage while filtering fine particles. This dual function ensures long-term filtration performance in saturated, flood-prone, or high water table environments. By preventing soil migration and reducing excess pore pressure, it protects base layer stability and improves resilience in water-sensitive applications.
Durability and Climate Resilience
ACETex® ES is constructed using ACE’s self-developed high tenacity polypropylene yarns, ensuring exceptional material strength, durability, and long-term reliability. These proprietary yarns, combined with precision-controlled weaving processes, contribute to the geotextile’s high tensile modulus and mechanical integrity. The fabric is engineered to withstand installation stresses and severe site conditions while resisting biological degradation, naturally encountered chemicals, UV exposure, and temperature fluctuations. This resilience ensures that ACETex® ES performs consistently in challenging environments and maintains its structural function over time.
Installation Efficiency and Design Flexibility
ACETex® ES is lightweight, easy to handle, and available in various roll widths and strength grades, supporting faster and more efficient installation with reduced overlap and labor costs. Its flexible yet durable form makes it compatible with a wide range of fill types and compaction methods, helping engineers meet diverse design specifications. Whether used for working platforms, roadways, or drainage layers, its deployment saves time and simplifies site logistics without compromising performance.
Why Choose ACETex® ES?
▶ Engineered for Demanding Conditions
ACETex® ES thrives where other materials fail—whether in wet climates, poor drainage soils, poor subgrade conditions, or unstable subgrades. It is specifically engineered for use in moderate to severe site conditions, performing effectively under moderate stress levels as well as more challenging environments. Its high-modulus design provides structural stability and resists deformation even under high traffic loads. Additionally, its exceptional hydraulic behavior ensures efficient drainage and long-term filtration performance. With a high-flow, adequate-sized pore structure, ACETex® ES facilitates water movement while retaining fine soil particles—minimizing excess pore pressure and erosion risks. This combined strength and permeability result in consistent performance through seasonal cycles and in areas subject to climate-induced extremes. The use of ACETex® ES for stabilization and reinforcement makes it a reliable choice for challenging construction projects.

1. Performance in Water-Sensitive and Flood-Prone Areas
As climate conditions shift, infrastructure must perform reliably in increasingly volatile hydrological contexts. ACETex® ES excels in managing surface and subsurface water while maintaining soil structure. Water is allowed to pass through the geotextile, enabling effective drainage and preventing water accumulation. Its features support resilient design in:
● Coastal and low-lying transport corridors
● Monsoon-prone or tropical regions
● Sites with high water tables and fluctuating saturation
● Irrigation, drainage, and agricultural infrastructure
By enhancing hydraulic function while preserving base layer integrity, ACETex® ES helps mitigate erosion, reduce washouts, and improve the overall lifespan of critical ground-supported systems.
2. Proven Versatility Across Sectors
ACETex® ES is deployed in a wide range of civil, industrial, and environmental projects, offering consistent performance and reliable outcomes in:
● National and rural road development
● Energy sector access (wind farms, solar arrays, substations)
● Industrial logistics yards and storage pads
● Stormwater channels and slope stabilization
● Ports, reclamation areas, and rail embankments
Its adaptable design supports both new construction and rehabilitation projects, enabling engineers to meet technical, environmental, and budgetary goals with confidence.
3. Contribution to Carbon Reduction and Sustainability
ACETex® ES supports carbon-conscious construction by reducing the need for over-excavation, thick aggregate layers, and imported high-quality fill materials. Its high strength-to-weight ratio and optimized performance allow for thinner pavement designs and less reliance on carbon-intensive materials, such as gravels, cement-stabilized bases, or extensive drainage systems. These efficiencies translate to measurable reductions in fuel usage, truck trips, and raw material extraction, directly contributing to lower greenhouse gas emissions throughout the project lifecycle.
Additionally, the durability and long service life of ACETex® ES extend maintenance intervals and reduce the frequency of repairs or replacements. This minimizes the embodied carbon associated with recurring construction activities. When integrated into green infrastructure or low-impact development frameworks, ACETex® ES furthers broader sustainability and ESG goals, making it an integral part of modern, environmentally responsible engineering.
