Liners and Lining Systems for Reservoirs, Lagoons and Storm Ponds

Overseas Projects

UK Projects

Water is a most precious resource. Increasingly, to meet irrigation requirements, storage reservoirs are recognised as the key to water self-sufficiency.

The management of waste liquids and effluents is subject to stringent legal requirements meaning that lagoons and ponds are required to avoid discharge into rivers and other watercourses prior to treatment.

Synthetic liners – Geomembranes - provide a cost-effective and assured method of waterproofing these in-ground / earth-built structures.

This section details the substantial experience of Geosynthetic Technology Limited (GT) and the benefits of employing the service and materials of the company in the construction of lined reservoirs, lagoons and ponds.

GT offers a wide range of high-performance liner products manufactured from Polyethylene (PE) and Polypropylene (PP) and specific formulations to meet every requirement. Our liners and installation services are recognised internationally as First Quality Standard giving optimum service life.

The Lining Installation Process

1. Preparatory earthworks in progress. The area is cleared of large stones, debris and tree roots and is compacted to give a firm, dry surface on which to lay the lining system.

2. Geotextile underlay is installed. This provides a puncture-resistant layer onto which the geomembrane lining can be laid.

3. Geomembrane lining is laid. All joints are welded on site to ensure full waterproof integrity.

4. Fully lined earth structure awaiting filling. If required a geotextile overlay can be added to allow landscaping / soil covering.
