Reinforced UltraTech Flexible Geomembrane

Excellent Weatherability & Chemical Resistance

The following is a specification for EPI's Reinforced UltraTech geomembrane and is recommended for use as a guideline in specifying lining and cover membrane.

UltraTech is a polymeric lining material made of a synthetic compound formulated with polymers, resin modifiers, and stabilizers. UltraTech is highly trusted for its high tensile strength and flexibility over a wide range of temperatures. It provides exceptional resistance to weather and chemicals.

The Reinforced UltraTech flexible membrane provides high-dimensional stability through its three-layer construction: two layers of UltraTech with a scrim fabric sandwiched between. It is manufactured totally by calendering, with each ply laminated to the next ply through the openings in the scrim weave, to produce a pinhole-free membrane.

The open-weave supporting fabric has a 16 x 8, 2:1 leno weave 250 warp/500 fill denier (8 x 8 — 500d apparent) construction. The single-ply of supporting UltraTech fabric is totally encapsulated within the 2 plies of membrane, giving a 3-ply construction of nominal 35 mil thickness.


Benefits of Reinforced UltraTech:

  • Weather-resistant (does not require an earthen cover)

  • Petrochemical-resistant

  • Three-dimension performance flexibility

  • Large panels, which eliminate field seams

  • Custom size and shape panels

Typical Applications of UltraTech Geomembrane:

  • Exposed applications

  • Hydrocarbon-resistant

  • Industrial waste

  • Oilfield

  • Secondary containment

  • Remediation
