Geomembrane

What is Geomembrane ?

Geomembrane (geomembrana) is a tough plastic liner with High Strength , Strong Stress Crack resistance , Fantastic Chemical Resistance , Amazing Resistance to high or low Temperature , Ultraviolet .Oxidation and Long Lasting . HDPE geomembrane is with strong tensile strengh ≥ 25 MPa and very low impermeability coefficient ≤ 10⁻¹² cm/s.  It works great in strong acids, alkali , oils environment and temperature ranging from -70°C and to 70°C.  The lifespan is over 50 years.
This is the reason that it’s widely used as liner for all kinds of anti-seepage applications, such as Irrigation pond , Shrimp or Fish Pond , Landfill , Biogas Digester , Mining , Waster Water Treatment , Water Tank ...etc



As experienced geomembrane manufacturer since 2008 , MASPOWER produce high class quality grade of geomembrane liner with different material types : HDPE  PVC  LLDPE , of course with different characteristics and applications. Among them , HDPE geomembrane is the most popular and commonly used. People also call it HDPE liner . Here are some general features of those liners :
Life-span : HDPE (over 50 years) > LLDPE (30-50 years) > PVC (10-20 years, affected by plasticizer migration)
Tensile Strength: HDPE > LLDPE > PVC
Anti UV and Anti-Oxidation: HDPE > LLDPE > PVC
Compliance : HDPE ≈ LLDPE < PVC
Environmental Performance: HDPE and LLDPE are more recyclable, while PVC, due to its chlorine and plasticizer content, is difficult to recycle and less environmentally friendly .

Textured geomembrane liner also available. It's ideally suitable for projects with steep slopes because the textured surface bring much more friction on the contact surface.
Both HDPE and LLDPE liner are up to top quality Standard : GRI-GM13 GM17 ,which is the best quality grade in the world.  Our PVC liner meets GB standard , the best quality grade in China.




All Thicknesses Available for Different Application

We also wholesale geomembrane liners with different thickness and Sizes :
0.5mm  0.75mm  1mm  1.25mm   1.5mm   2mm   2.5mm   3.0mm
Or
20mils   30mils   40mils   50mils   60mils   80mils   100mils    120mils
.....
The liners can be produced as 6m 7m 8m .... wide and 50m 70m 100m... long per roll. Here are thicknesses matches corresponding applications :
0.5mm  0.75mm  or 20mils  30mils HDPE liners    for fish shrimp pond
1mm  or  40mils liners                                            for large reservoir  , dam and landscaping lake
1mm   1.2mm  1.5mm  or   40mils  50mils  60mils for landfill
1.2mm  1.5mm  or   50mils  60mils                        for Biogas Digester
1.5mm  2mm  or  60mils  80mils                            for  mining


Turnkey Solution with Honesty

MASPOWER supplies different thicknesses of geomembrane liners , different material types ( HDPE ,PVC ,LLDPE ) and High Class quality grade . We can also make the liner 2m 3m 4m 6m 7m 8m wide and 50m 80m 100m... long as you wish so that the liner can fit your project to the largest extent.
