HDPE T-Grip geomembrane is a special type of geomembrane manufactured from high-density polyethylene (HDPE), featuring T-shaped studs on its surface. These T-grip studs provide a mechanical interlock with concrete, ensuring that the geomembrane becomes integrated with the concrete during casting and cannot detach from the surface.
Where Is It Used?
HDPE T-Grip geomembrane is primarily used in concrete-based water and chemical containment structures, including:
• Tunnels and metro projects
• Wastewater treatment tanks
• Drinking water and wastewater reservoirs
• Chemical storage basins
• Bridges, culverts, and retaining structures
• Dams and irrigation projects
It is one of the most reliable solutions for any structure requiring geomembrane-to-concrete bonding.
Technical Advantages
• Excellent concrete adhesion: The T-grip studs embed into the concrete, providing full structural integration.
• High chemical resistance: Resistant to acids, bases, and many chemical solvents.
• High tensile and tear strength: Ideal for heavy-duty and long-term applications.
• UV resistance: Ensures long service life in exposed environments.
• Waterproofing performance: Provides 100% impermeability.
• Long lifespan: Can perform effectively for up to 50 years.
Purpose of Use
Unlike standard geomembranes designed only for surface lining, the HDPE T-Grip geomembrane is engineered to be mechanically locked into the concrete, creating a permanent waterproofing layer.
Available Thickness Options
Typically produced in the following thicknesses:
• 1.5 mm
• 2.0 mm
• 2.5 mm
• 3.0 mm
The selection of thickness depends on project load requirements and the specific application.
