Geosynthetics in Recycling Facilities
Sanitary landfills, hazardous waste facilities, leachate ponds and sludge lagoons are demanding environments where aggressive leachate chemistry, heavy waste loads and decades-long service conditions all come together. These sites must safely contain the stored waste while protecting groundwater and soil from contamination for many years to come.
Geomas geosynthetic solutions combine geomembranes and geosynthetic clay liners to form a continuous sealing barrier across the site base and side slopes. Groundwater and soil are shielded from leachate and waste-borne contaminants, while the facility meets the impermeability criteria required by environmental regulations.
Drainage geocomposites collect and safely convey leachate under controlled conditions, while protective geotextiles guard the geomembrane against punctures from waste and cover material, preserving the integrity of the system for years. Double-liner and leak-detection layers make it possible to identify potential leaks at an early stage.
Every site is different in terms of waste class, volume and climate. That is why we select products based on the project's geotechnical and waste data rather than a standard catalog. At the closure and rehabilitation stage, we also deliver long-term solutions with final cover systems. The result: a safer, fully compliant and more efficient waste management operation.
The Geomas Difference in Environmental & Solid Waste
- Engineered for landfills and leachate containment ponds.
- Protects groundwater and soil from contamination.
- Collects and safely discharges leachate under control.
- Minimizes the risk of leakage.
- Ensures full compliance with environmental standards.
- Reduces site cost and construction time.
- Extends the service life of the storage area.
- Secures final closure and rehabilitation.
Products
BentoShield's leakproof technology effectively combines the unique swelling performance of sodium bentonite granules or bentonite powder with two high-strength geotextiles.
TechTex C is a black, non-woven, heat-treated geotextile material produced by needling high-strength 0 pure polypropylene fibers.
The GeoDrain product family is a composite material consisting of a polymer drainage core combined with a nonwoven geotextile that provides protection and filtration on one or both sides.
TechGrid© are high-strength and extremely flexible geogrids with a proven track record in soil reinforcement. They are coated with PVC or PVA depending on the soil structure where they will be used.
HighTex products are flat woven geotextile fabrics produced by weaving high-strength special multifilament polyester fibers in the weaving direction and in the opposite direction to the weaving direction.
Geomembranes are used for surface protection and insulation; they are geosynthetic sheets made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) that can be smooth, single-sided, and/or double-sided textured.
