Geomembrane Uses and Benefits in Construction
Geomembrane is a type of geosynthetic used as a waterproof liner, made from synthetic plastic-like materials. Geomembranes are generally produced from thin polymer sheets, but they can also be produced by impregnation. Here are the main geomembrane uses.
HDPE geomembrane can also be used as a waterproof layer to separate solids and liquids, whether waste or not, and its impermeability keeps the subgrade beneath it protected. Where is geomembrane used? As follows:

Geomembrane for road construction
Geomembrane sheeting can be used on waterlogged soil layers (with springs) that are hard to dry out. Geomembrane also acts as a separator or waterproof layer, so the good fill or pavement layers above it are not disturbed by water or soft soil.
2. Landfills for Waste
Geomembrane for landfills (TPA, final waste disposal sites)
At landfills for solid and liquid waste, geomembrane acts as a waterproof layer that keeps the soil clean and free from harmful microorganisms.
3. Aquaculture Ponds
Geomembrane for aquaculture pond lining
In aquaculture ponds, geomembrane prevents water loss caused by tidal fluctuations, helping keep the fish or shrimp alive.

Geomembrane Tips for Small Reservoirs (Embung)
Geomembrane is a geosynthetic product that is impermeable. Geomembrane is generally used to line storage facilities so that liquids do not seep into embankment fill and the like, which makes geomembrane for small reservoirs (embung) a common application. In general, geomembrane for storage facilities such as an embung (small retention reservoir) should be ≥ 1 […]
