Electrically Conductive Geomembranes
Coextrusion techniques can be used to produce HDPE, LLDPE, and
VLDPE geomembranes with electrically conductive signal layers. On
one hand, this can help prevent static charging so that the membranes
can be used in explosion-protected areas. On the other hand, these
membranes are used as part of leakage detection systems.
High-Temperature Resistant Geomembranes
Due to its improved durability at elevated temperatures, the HTRPE
geomembrane has created new possibilities for industry and other
applications where processes are carried out at higher temperatures:
• Energy production from renewable sources (solar thermal,
biomass and geothermal energy)
• Hot-water tanks
• Bioreactors
• Leaching ponds
• Oil and gas industry
• Industrial water and waste water
Studded Drain Liner
In the case of double seals or controlled drainage, a three-layer system
consisting of two smooth geomembranes and a drainage product is
typically used. The use of AGRU studded Drain Liner makes it possible
to reduce the system to two components, which saves material and
installation costs. In addition, the system remains stable at high loads.
