HD, a High Density Polyethylene Geomembrane, surpasses the requirements set by the GRI-GM13 Specification standard for HD Geomembrane Liners. Recognized as the most prevalent geomembrane globally, HDPE geomembrane liners are especially popular internationally due to their accessibility and cost-effectiveness. These liners are ideal for expansive projects necessitating UV and ozone resistance, chemical resilience, or top-tier installations. They are predominantly utilized in landfill and mining sectors. Delivered in substantial rolls with a width of 22.5', the material is heat-welded on-site by skilled technicians, ensuring a premium, test-certified setup. HD is available in thicknesses ranging from 20 to 100 mils and offers both textured and conductive variants. While a range of colors is available to cater to specific needs, it's essential to note that HD cannot be factory seamed; all seaming must be conducted in the field.
HDPE lining materials, commonly referred to as HD, offer a suite of benefits tailored for diverse applications. They are chemically resistant, durable, UV stable, and cost-effective. Particularly, HD stands out as a cost-efficient choice for exposed lining projects, given its UV stability that eliminates the need for soil cover. Its robust chemical resistance has made it a preferred choice for landfills, WWT lagoons, animal waste lagoons, and mining applications. The HDPE geomembrane can be seamlessly bonded using wedge or fusion welding, ensuring a robust system.
HD is a versatile material tailored for a wide array of applications. It's particularly well-suited for landfill caps and cells, ensuring efficient containment and environmental protection. Wastewater treatment plants benefit from its robust qualities, as do natural bodies of water like ponds and lakes. Additionally, HD is an excellent choice for irrigation reservoirs, providing optimal water management and distribution. Tank and containment pits, golf course ponds, and animal waste lagoons also frequently employ HD, showcasing its adaptability across different scenarios. Furthermore, its effectiveness extends to gas collection covers, highlighting its comprehensive utility.
When it comes to seaming HDPE, a specialized approach is employed to ensure its durability and integrity. HDPE is designed to be thermally welded, demanding precision and expertise. As such, only a technician with the requisite training is authorized to perform this thermal welding, ensuring the highest quality and effectiveness of the seam.
The warranty for HDPE is twofold. For fabrication, there's a 1-year warranty specifically covering fabricated seams. As for the manufacturer's material warranty, it's recommended to consult with your GEO Pro to obtain detailed information and specifics.
