Geomembrane Thickness

Geomembrane Thickness – Geomembrane thickness is a crucial parameter in the production and application of geomembranes, particularly in the context of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and low-density polyethylene (LDPE) materials. Here are some key points regarding geomembrane thickness:

The HDPE geomembranes are divided into several sections according to their thickness and each density has its respective functions. The thicknesses of this material that is commonly found on the market start from 0.3 mm 0.5 mm, 0.75 mm, 1 mm, 1.5 mm, and 2 mm. However, we also provide more depending on the needs of the consumer.

=> Thickness 0.3 mm

0,3 mm is the thinnest in its class. However, it’s still strong enough to prevent a leak. HDPE with a thickness of 0.3 mm is commonly used as a salt pile base, because in addition to leak resistance, this geomembrane is also resistant to corrosion and direct sunlight exposure.

=> 0.5 mm thickness

This is because the shrimp is an active moving animal that requires a thicker geomembrane to cover the base of the shrub so as not to leak easily. In addition to preventing leakage due to the friction caused by shrubs, the geomembra also prevents the occurrence of water pollution on the shrapnel by holding the soil of the base.

=> Thickness 0.75 – 2 mm

This material is known to be resistant to acidic substances in addition to being waterproof and resistant to prolonged sun exposure. That’s what makes the agricultural industry choose this as a base on the waste pool they have. Typically, industrial operators use geomembranes with a thickness of 1.5 mm in the waste pond.
