IAGI's InfoHubInstallation Safety: The Critical Role of Toolbox MeetingsInstalling geomembrane liners is physically demanding and presents substantial safety risks. The help manage these risks, regular toolbox meetings are one of the most effective tools available. This article outlines the value of toolbox meetings and offers practical guidance for conducting them.
Important Questions when Selecting a GeomembraneGeomembranes are advanced synthetic barriers engineered for exceptionally low permeability, designed to contain liquids, gases, or chemicals within a controlled area. They are produced using a range of polymer types and structural configurations, each offering unique performance characteristics tailored to specific site conditions and operational demands.
This article explores the key questions and important factors to consider when selecting geomembrane materials, helping stakeholders make informed, project-aligned decisions.
HDPE verses LLDPE Geomembranes – Which Is Better?Over the past 40 years, HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) and LLDPE (Linear Low Density Polyethylene) geomembranes have become the dominant materials used for environmental containment. Widely used across various industries including municipal waste, water, mining, oil & gas, renewable energy, agriculture, and environmental remediation, both materials offer:
So, which is better?
