This work is based on measurements of the thermal conductivity of four nonwoven needle-punched geotextiles of varying thicknesses made from virgin or recycled fibres. These values were measured using the hot-plate method. Then, to assess the use of these geotextiles under a covering soil layer, compression tests were performed. For each sample, the relation between thickness and vertical stress was thus established. The thermal conductivities varied from 0.04 to 0.06 W/m/K depending on the geotextile type and the compression stress applied. Subsequent measurements focused on the thermal conductivity of a bilayer compacted soil plus geotextile. Results revealed a water migration towards the geotextile and therefore a larger thermal conductivity. These results highlighted the main importance of compression load and moisture environment in the use of geotextiles as insulation products.
