PVC GEOMEMBRANE LINERS
PVC GEOMEMBRANE LINERS
Contractor Friendly and Highly Flexible
Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC) geomembrane liners have been a trusted solution since the 1950s, known for their superior performance in various environmental and industrial applications including waste management, water conservation, aquaculture, and industrial containment. They are a cost-effective and sustainable choice ensuring durability and reliable performance across various challenging environments.
PVC geomembrane liners are highly flexible, conforming easily to sub-grade contours, and exhibit excellent interface friction without texturing. They are puncture and abrasion-resistant, with superior chemical resistance to acids, alkalis, and alcohols. Designed to be buried, these liners are protected from sunlight, enhancing longevity.
PVC liners are custom-fabricated into large panels in a factory-controlled environment. The panels are accordion folded in both directions and packaged for shipment to the job site for quick and easy installation. A major advantage of using PVC geomembranes is that contractors can seam the panels together with an adhesive in the field without the need for specialized equipment or external installers, which saves time and money.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
PVC GEOMEMBRANE LINERS
What are PVC geomembrane liners?
PVC geomembrane liners are durable, flexible materials used for lining and containing liquids and solids in various environmental, industrial, and agricultural applications.
What types of PVC geomembrane liners are available?
PVC geomembrane liners are available in several types, including reinforced, unreinforced, potable water, fish grade, oil resistant, and specially formulated PVC that can be left exposed to sunlight without degrading.
What are the advantages of using PVC geomembrane liners?
PVC geomembrane liners present several significant benefits, particularly their ease of installation, which enables contractors to install them without the need for specialized equipment or external installers. This standout advantage is complemented by the material’s high flexibility, excellent puncture and abrasion resistance, and superior chemical resistance
In what applications can PVC geomembrane liners be used?
PVC geomembrane liners are used in waste management systems, water conservation initiatives, aquaculture, industrial containment, potable water containment, secondary containment systems, landfill liners, mining operations, underground stormwater detention units, and exfiltration trench “side bank filters.”
Can PVC geomembrane liners be used in cold weather applications?
While PVC geomembrane liners have excellent elongation properties, they may lose some flexibility in cold weather applications. Proper handling and installation techniques can help mitigate this issue.
How are PVC geomembrane liners installed?
PVC geomembrane liners can be installed using adhesives or by thermal welding. Custom panels and prefabricated pipe boots are available to simplify the installation process.
