Watertightness

Geomembrane

* Our geomembrane supplier provides a ten-year warranty on watertightness.

The membranes are assembled at the factory to the exact dimensions of the tank (diameter and height).

When the tanks are equipped with a sump, it is also prefabricated at the factory. A geotextile felt is positioned between the geomembrane and the concrete base, to protect it from the asperities of the concrete.

Watertightness by mastic joint sealant

The application of a mastic joint sealant - polyurethane, silicone - between the metal sheets ensures the watertightness of the tank.

For the bottom of the tank, the concrete base is then treated with a water repellent.
