Using the expertise gained in manufacturing roofing materials, Plastatech developed the PlastaFlex® IG Industrial Grade Geomembrane. This geomembrane is formulated to withstand UV rays, atmospheric pollutants, and harsh chemicals commonly found in industrial settings.
- PlastaFlex IG offers unsurpassed flexibility and tensile strength.
- Easily installed in exposed high-stress and irregularly-contoured areas.
- PlastaFlex IG’s proprietary anti-blocking formulation reduces surface friction and allows for trouble-free movement and job site installation.
- Meets exposed long-term design and durability requirements.
- Excellent lay-flat and squareness characteristics.
- Panels can be joined using chemical, dielectric or heat-welded seams.
Applications:
- Landfill liners
- Landfill caps
- Secondary containment
- Waste water containment
- Containment ponds
