  • Task

    Preventing petroleum product infiltration into the soil. 

    Solution

    Construction of a liner system: the base and slopes of the site are cleared of large soil particles, after which the waterproofing layer is installed to ensure the facility is watertight.

    The material ensuring complete watertightness of the facility is HDPE Geomembrane Type 1 — a smooth polymer sheet for waterproofing. The geomembrane has a zero absorption coefficient and is 100% waterproof. The material is resistant to petroleum products, ultraviolet radiation, corrosion, decay and low temperatures.

    Technology advantages
    • Complete watertightness
    • High tensile strength
    • Elongation at break of at least 800%
    • High chemical resistance (pH 0.5-14)
    • High frost resistance (down to -70° С)
    • High resistance to dynamic and seismic loads
    • High anti-corrosion properties
    • Non-toxic and environmentally safe material
    • Warranty service life of at least 50 years
    • Fast production and delivery times
    • Field quality control
