Geomembrane Welding

Expert Geomembrane Welding Services for Optimal Liner Integrity

Geomembrane welding is a crucial aspect affecting the performance and leakage rates of installed liner systems. As a leading geomembrane company in UAE, we provide specialized welding services for all types of geosynthetic liners using state-of-the-art equipment and skilled technicians.

Need for Proper Welding of Geomembranes

Geomembranes are supplied in rolls or sheets which need to be jointed onsite to form a continuous liner barrier. The integrity of the welded seams determines the containment effectiveness of the installed geomembrane. Poor welding can lead to liner failures, water losses and environmental issues.

High performance welding of adjacent liner panels on field requires systematic processes, expert welders and advanced equipment to achieve leak-rate standards.

Our Geomembrane Welding Capabilities

We are equipped with fully automated welding machinery and skilled technicians to provide the following range of geomembrane welding services:

HDPE Welding - We specialize in hot wedge welding for HDPE liners up to 3mm thickness used in landfills, mining, irrigation canals, fuel tanks, etc.

TPO Welding – We expertly weld difficult to bond Thermoplastic PolyOlefin (TPO) liners using radio frequency (RF) welding technology.

PVC Welding - We have expertise in chemical, adhesive and thermal welding methods for PVC pond liners as required.

EPDM Welding - Our teams use specialized techniques for consistently welding rubber liners used in decorative ponds.

LLDPE Welding - We deploy ultrasonic welding technology for high performance joining of linear low-density polyethylene pond and pit liners.

FPO Welding - We have experience welding flexible polyolefin (FPO) liners used in potable water containment applications.

XLPE Welding - We are equipped to thermally weld polyethylene liners reinforced with geotextiles using automated machines.

Field Seam Testing - We conduct non-destructive tests on all welded seams to identify flaws and ensure leak tightness.

Our Welding Procedures

Our certified welders adhere to stringent welding procedures for high seam strength and integrity:

  • Surface preparation - Removing dirt, moisture and impurities from liner surface
  • Edge trimming - Cutting liner sheets straight for proper alignment
  • Seam Layout - Marking the welding path on the geomembrane
  • Equipment settings - Conditioning welding machines as per material thickness
  • Trial welds - Initial test welds to check parameters and fine-tune settings
  • Welding - Creating continuous, homogeneous seams along marked layout
  • Visual inspection - Preliminary checking for any surface defects or flaws
  • Non-destructive tests - Testing using air pressure or vacuum box method
  • Destructive test welds - Laboratory testing of sample welds to validate strength
  • Defect repair - Repairing identified flaws by re-welding or patch welding
