Nonwoven and woven/knit geotextiles will remain the dominant segment and offer good growth prospects, driven by construction and transportation infrastructure markets. Geonets will achieve the fastest gains from a much smaller base. This study analyzes the 904 million square yard US geosynthetics industry. It presents historical demand data for the years 2000, 2005 and 2010, and forecasts for 2015 and 2020 by product (e.g., geotextiles, geomembranes, geogrids, geonets), market (e.g., construction, transportation infrastructure, landfills, liquid containment) and region. The study also considers market environment factors, details industry structure, evaluates company market share and profiles 40 industry players, including GSE Lining Technology, Propex and TenCate Geosynthetics North America.
