Geomembranes can seal anything from fishponds to landfills

Geomembranes are synthetic liners used to contain fluids or gases, often of hazardous nature. They are made of thin, flexible materials such as PP, PE, PVC and EPDM, and have exceptionally low permeability. They are known for being even more watertight and durable than GCLs. The most common applications include sealing landfills and waste dumps.

Optimal water permeability

Geomembranes are an effective solution to contain liquids, vapours, and gases. They are 100% watertight comparing to GCLs, but in combination with the latter, they make a practically impervious solution.

Durability

Geomembranes can be made of different polymers depending on the application. They are resistant to UV radiation, chemical and biological corrosion, acids, and alkali. Their expected service life is estimated at as long as 400 years in favourable conditions.

Customizable size

They are produced in rolls of up to 15 meters wide. When larger sheets are required, they are joined by thermal bonding or welding at the seams to ensure a strong connection. From a pond to a landfill, geomembranes can be as small or as big as needed.

Environmentally friendly

Geomembranes extract no dangerous substances to the surrounding environment and can be reused. They are toxin-free and eco-friendly.

Applications:


  • Construction of landfills and waste areas

  • Waste dumps sealing

  • Construction of canals, levees, and artificial water reservoirs

  • Reinforced concrete and steel tanks sealing

  • Ponds

  • Ditches for road projects

  • Yards at scrap vehicle recycling establishments sealing
