Geosynthetic Clay Liners – GCL’s

Aspect Environmental Lining Ltd supply and install ELCOSeal GCL’s. ELCOSeal GCL’s utilise a layer of Sodium Bentonite clay between two geotextiles. The geotextiles are needle punched together through the Bentonite providing high shear resistance.

• Provides an exceptional hydraulic barrier.
  
• Cost effective installation.
  
• Simple on-site joining of panels.
  
• Increases air-space in landfill cell applications.

Typical Applications:

• Landfill base liner systems
  
• Landfill capping systems
  
• Secondary containment – Tank farms
  
• Mining – Tailings dams and closures
  
• Wetlands and Landscaping ponds
  
• Wastewater ponds

When hydrated the GCL provides a low permeability layer of clay equivalent to approximately 1 metre of compacted clay.
