Bentonite mats with weldable geomembrane — double anti-seepage liner
A bentonite mat with a factory-bonded weldable geomembrane forms a double anti-seepage liner for sites in difficult hydrogeological conditions.

Grade LP combines both enhancements of the line: a polymer additive to the sodium bentonite and a laminating polyethylene film. The mat is impermeable, resistant to media with pH from 1 to 13, remains flexible down to −70 °C and withstands hydrostatic pressure up to 7 atm. It is used on foundations, in basements, car parks, tunnels, wells and tanks; the recommended storage period is 8 months from the date of manufacture.
