EPDM Rubber
Liners - (Ethylene propylene diene terpolymer)
Description
—
EPDM is a durable geomembrane with a 20-year proven performance
history in exposed applications, such as ponds and lakes, canals,
fish stock ponds. It can be self-installed in residential water
features.
EPDM
exhibits high tensile strenth and excellent resistance to punctures,
UV radiation, weathering and microbial attack. It is also highly
flexible material with a low co-efficient of thermal expansion and
contraction, enabling it to lay flat in a wide range of temperatures
and terrains thereby conforming well to irregularities in the subgrade.
EPDM is manufactured in panels up to 50' wide to 200' long, is installed
as liners, caps and covers in environmental containment applications
worldwide.
A relative
newcomer to the geomembrane industry, this product exhibits excellent
elongation characteristics and does not require a soil cover. EPDM
is delivered to the project in panels that are up to 50' x 200'
(10,000 sq.ft.) This product is available in custom sizes as well.

EPDM is gaining popularity
in the custom waterfall and decorative pond market due to its high
degree of flexibility. Its resistance to weathering and UV exposure
comes into play around the waterline where the membrane can be exposed
with rising and falling water levels. Its ability to expand and
contract, while maintaining its integrity as water levels and temperatures
change is another design asset.
