HDPE (High Density Polyethylene)
& MDPE (Medium Density Polyethylene)
High Density Polyethylene Installations
Medium Density Polyethylene information
HDPE is manufactured from microbiological resistant polyethylene resins and offers optimum chemical resistance, with weathering capabilities and stress absorption properties.
This material is also approved for fish and plants.
HDPE offers the best dimensional stability and resistance to stress cracking, with excellent weld strength.
You can be assured that Field Lining Systems has the experience, knowledge and full capabilities to handle the most complex and difficult lining assignments, with HDPE being one of Field Lining Systems specialties.
Field Lining Systems, Inc., has installed millions of square feet of HDPE
in all types of applications.
Field Lining
Systems specializes in the installation of a variety of flexible membrane linings. This
HDPE liner was installed into a reservoir system.
Because HDPE is resistant to a broad
range of chemicals in varying degrees of concentration as well as sunlight and UV attack,
it is an excellent application for leach pads, wastewater ponds, landfills, aquaculture
systems, landfill covers, secondary containment and tanks.
Field Lining Systems has installed HDPE sheet
in sumps, ponds, canals, landfills, tanks, pit and trenches made of concrete, steel, dirt
and wood for transfer and containment
of chemical waste products. The fusion process is
used for seaming panels together. This is achieved by using a split wedge type
welding equipment. The liner seams are then pressure tested to ensure a leak free lining
system.
HDPE is available in thickness of 20 mil to
100 mil to meet
your lining needs. Whether it is studded in place in concrete, steel, wood
or the edges are buried for attachment in earthen ponds, HDPE is the toughest lining
available for these industrial applications.

For environmental
protection, HDPE Geomembranes are the perfect solution for lining landfill facilities.
Field Lining Systems, Inc., has extensive experience installing many types of geomembranes
in a variety of landfill applications. Landfill lining today takes a great deal of expertise and planning to ensure coordination
with other contractors involved in the installation itself.
Field Lining Systems, Inc. has proven
itself, by the millions of square feet installed, that they have the
knowledge, professionalism and capabilities to ensure a top quality lining system.
Landfill covers pose some difficulty due to
the constant settling and shifting of the decomposing refuse heaps, but there are HDPE
membranes that have been produced just for this reason.
Field
Lining Systems has the solutions to your landfill cover lining project.
HDPE linings in
leachate ponds keep the leachate contained that is collected from landfill cells. HDPE
lining systems are extremely durable and can withstand the fluctuating extreme heat and
bitter cold
weather elements they are constantly exposed to.
HDPE geomembranes can
be used for primary containment of hydrocarbons, fuels, chemicals, potable
water, and
most
hazardous liquids. HDPE can be attached to steel tanks, concrete foundations or used
as a
floating or fixed roof cover on the tank. Preserve and protect your tank walls from
corrosion. You
can also keep your potable water free from deteriorating contaminants
entering your water system.
Reliable secondary
containment is crucial to keeping hazardous chemicals and waste from seeping from
the primary containment vessel to the surrounding area. HDPE liner protection is a
proven secure
method for secondary containment in many types of applications.
Long lasting and
durable geomembrane lining systems are used in some of the most demanding mining
facilities. HDPE provides an outstanding chemical resistant and puncture resistant lining
system. Variable thickness', textures and widths of the materials ensure faster
installation time and less
opportunity for leakage.
HDPE is the industry
choice for lining all types of clean water canals and waterways for secure water
containment. Concrete and earthen canals can lose great amounts of precious water due to
cracking,
leaking and erosion problems.
UV-stabilized HDPE can be exposed for long periods of time without decline in their
performance level,
or the lining system can be covered with a soil or concrete. Some canal
linings require a concrete
covering on top of the geomembrane. Canal lining systems do need protection form debris, equipment, vandals.
With low permeability
rates, erosion protection, long lasting, secure containment, cleaning and
disinfecting capabilities and long life, an HDPE lining system for your shrimp and fish farming
facility
will greatly benefit the quality and quantity of your harvest. Risk of disease is
greatly diminished. Water quality is superior as HDPE liners contain no additives or
chemicals which can leach out into
your system.

Blended Medium Density Polyethylene
(not approved
for live fish and plants).
This is a lightweight film monolayer membrane material consisting of
a blended medium density polyethylene. Minimum carbon black content of 2.5% provides
excellent protection from UV rays and harsh weather conditions. Puncture and tear
strengths far exceed common polyethylene or vinyl films. This product is used mostly for
larger ponds, including lagoons, canal liners, fire ponds, remediation liners, cargo
covers, oil field pit liners, silage covers, outdoor covers, brine ponds, mine trailing
ponds, interim landfill caps, leachate collection ponds. All panels are accordion folded
every 5 feet and tightly rolled on a heavy-duty core for ease of handling and time saving
installation. Material comes in 10, 30 & 40 mil. Available in one piece
applications up to 50,000 square foot panels in the 20 mil, 33,000 square foot panels in 30 mil and 25,000
square foot panels in 40 mil. 20 years is the average life
