SOLSHIELD Geomembrane Liner (HDPE)

Solshield Geomembrane Liner is made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE), suitable for use as a lining membrane in both horizontal & vertical applications.
Solshield Geomembrane Liner is manufactured in two basic roll widths – 5.1m and 8.0m.
Available in thicknesses ranging from 0.75mm – 3.0mm.

The main purpose of the product is to serve as a barrier protecting various engineering structures against moisture, water, liquids and chemical substances, gases (radon, methane and carbon dioxide).

Typical applications areas:
• Civil engineering projects (municipal/urban structures, industrial and agricultural estates)
• Insulation of various hydraulic structures, water resources engineering (ponds, lakes, dams, canals and reservoirs)
• Liquid & solid waste deposits/reservoirs, landfills (capping), wastewater collectors, dewatering pits

Installation

We recommend joint welding for certain applications however the membrane can be taped.

Ensure surfaces are clean and dry before applying tapes. Roll out Solco 100mm x 10m Butyl tape 50mm in from the membrane edge. Overlap adjoining membrane a minimum of 150mm and seal edge with Solco 150mm x 20mt XL Reinforcement Tape .

In complex junctions, penetrations and terminations to existing structures you should also apply Solco 150mm x 20mt XL Reinforcement Tape ensuring a minimum of 150mm lap onto the membrane is achieved.
