PlastaFlex® OR Oil Resistant Geomembranes provide impervious protection when exposed to oils, fuels, and harsh chemicals commonly found in industrial and oil refinery settings. PlastaFlex OR imparts exceptional protection against UV rays, extreme temperatures, and atmospheric pollutants.
- PlastaFlex OR offers maximum flexibility, elongation and tensile strength.
- Easily installed in exposed high-stress and irregularly-contoured areas.
- Anti-blocking formulation reduces surface friction for trouble-free job site movement.
- Offers long-term design performance.
- Excellent lay-flat and squareness characteristics eliminate edge wrinkles, easing seam-sealing process.
- Panels can be joined using chemical, dielectric or heat-welded seams.
Applications:
- Oil spill booms
- Jet-fuel secondary containment
- Chemical containment
- Containment ponds
- Refineries
- Pipe lining
