Kaytech Engineered Fabrics
Geotextiles and geosynthetics
Kaytech has provided the Southern African Civil Engineering industry with geotextiles and geosynthetic solutions since 1971. Kaytech also manufactures nonwoven continuous filament needle punched polyester bidim-A grade geotextile; RockGrid warp knit polyester composite geotextiles and geogrids as well as Envirofix geosynthetic clay liners.
Kaytech’s product range and expertise cover drainage and filtration, separation and reinforcement, road maintenance and rehabilitation, load support and earth retention, water and waste containment liners, hydraulic construction, erosion protection, waterproofing, and liner protection.
To be of greater service to our customers by extending comprehensive technical and design support covering a wide range of geosynthetic products that are complementary to our tried and tested bidim® product. There is: Always a Better Solution®
As further support to the local geotextile industry, our in-house library in Pinetown is the most comprehensive of its kind on geosynthetics in South Africa and the information is readily available to our customers. Access this information by contacting our librarian.
Besides our 5 branches operating nationally, our Exports department supplies to the rest of Africa, the Indian Ocean Islands, the Middle East, South America and parts of South East Asia.

Suitable for water channels, slopes, and drainage, CCX® offers fast installation, exceptional durability, and low environmental impact, making it the leading concrete alternative in South African infrastructure projects.
EnviroRock® 3PL Installation Guidelines
EnviroRock® 3PL Installation Guidelines – The versatility and durability of EnviroRock® geocontainers provide solutions to structures such as groynes, walls, reef structures and other applications for marine and inland waterway structures.
Kaytech’s Multi-Cell Cellular Confinement System delivers innovative, robust solutions for erosion control, slope stabilisation, and load support in South African civil engineering and infrastructure projects. Engineered for versatility and efficiency, it provides in-situ shuttering for challenging terrains, making it an essential choice for engineers and contractors.
Sealmac Road Maintenance Systems
Sealmac® saturated with suitable bitumen effectively seals the existing pavement and reinforces the surface treatment by enhancing the performance of the seal. Sealmac® provides lower construction costs, lower maintenance costs, reduced overlay thickness and it prolongs fatigue life…
Megaflo Geocomposite Panel Drain System
Megaflo has a formed invert at the bottom of the panel preventing loss of water into the base soils. It has an open waterway with little restriction from support legs for high flow rates. Megaflo has a high vertical crush strength allowing reduced cover depths even under highway applications.
RockGrid® PC is the first composite reinforcing geotextile to be manufactured in South Africa and offers the reinforcement characteristics of geogrids and wovens in conjunction with the favourable hydraulic qualities of nonwovens.
Multi-Cell® is a honeycombed structure that is manufactured from strips of a coated slit film woven polypropylene tape that are stitched alternatively together to form a three dimensional diamond shaped cells. Multi-Cell® is used as an in-situ shuttering to cast continuous interlocking concrete paving for road or canal construction and as an erosion control formwork for soil vegetated embankments. Multi-Cell® has been extensively used in the construction industry as a fast and effective solution to canal / channel protection, load support and erosion control.
The Quick4 Infiltrator™ chamber system is a direct replacement for the stone and pipe, stormwater and wastewater french drain soakaway. Infiltration™ chambers promote effluent infiltration into the soil with 100% efficiency.
Sealmac is a nonwoven, spunbonded, continuous filament, double needlepunched, polyester geotextile. The Sealmac Dam Lining System involves the saturation of Sealmac® with a special elastomeric bitumen product to produce an impermeable membrane. Numerous farm and municipal oxidation dams have also been successfully installed with this system since 1980.
Geotextiles used in the following applications: filtration, subsoil drainage, sportsfield drainage, structural drainage, erosion control, separation / stabilisation, railtracks, reinforcing soil slopes, liner protection, road maintenance…
Kaybion baskets and mattresses
Kaybion® baskets and mattresses are woven wire mesh containers manufactured from zinc-coated steel wire, with or without an additional PVC coating.
Flodrain by Kaytech – The ready-made solution to subsoil drainage. The FloDrain™ can be successfully used in the lowering of the water table or intercepting seepage in a wide range of applications: roadside edge drains, railtrack formation edge drainage, sportsfields, behind retaining walls and bridge abutments…
Kaypipe Geopipe | The engineer's solution to all drainage problems
Kaypipe geopipe, the engineers’ solution to all your drainage problems, fin drains, couplings, no other drainage pipes have an infiltration rate equivalent
The EnviroRock® containers are extremely robust and are designed to be filled with sand, soil, gravel, recycled material, treated materials, or a combination thereof to form a stable, durable container.
Enviromat® is a locally produced and biodegradable erosion control blanket made from woodwool extracted from the alien Poplar tree. Used to combat soil erosion on exposed slopes, it stimulates vegetative growth while protecting topsoil and germinating seeds from the elements.
SoilSaver for erosion problems
SoilSaver for erosion problems, the ideal solution for stabilising and protecting ground surfaces from soil erosion. Made from woven 100% jute yarn, SoilSaver® features a coarse, 65% open mesh structure. This natural fibre mesh provides effective protection for bare soil against the elements, ensuring long-lasting stability and erosion control. Choose SoilSaver® for sustainable and reliable soil erosion management.
EnviroFIX – Needle-punched and thermally locked geosynthetic clay liner. Naturally occuring clay minera that swells as water enters between its platelets. The versatility and durability of EnviroRock® geocontainers provide solutions to structures such as groynes, walls, reef structures and other applications for marine and inland waterway structures.
Flo-Pipe ® drainage pipe | Kaytech geotextile engineering technology
Flo-Pipe ® drainage pipe is optimally slotted for maximum infiltration with minimal blockage. Fabricated from the highest quality HDPE available, the twin wall sandwich design provides strength and flexibility.
