Naue GlacierProtect 50G1 is a geotextile made of Secutex® Green G1. Secutex® Green is a 100% bio-degradable, mechanically bonded nonwoven. Its biodegradability is certified, which means that resi-dues of the product cause no harm to the environment. It is UV-resistant and can therefore be used in uncovered applications. It is a temporary solution, and vegetation and their roots take over the desired filter properties after its service life. No plastic is entered into the environment during the installation, operation, or renaturation of the product, and after its service life it can be composted after renatur-ation.
