We supply a wide range of compliant geo-membrane liners specifically suited to agricultural slurry lagoons.
Dependent on your needs, we can supply the geo-membrane only or provide you with a complete package. This includes supply, design and construction of the lagoon. Our installation team has over 25 years of experience in rural construction and are ISO:9001 and ISO:14001 compliant.
Our geo-membranes are designed to be strong and durable to ensure they last.
Our geo-membranes are designed to have a high resistance to punctures, preventing root growth and other items puncturing the membrane and causing leakages.
Our geo-membranes are designed to withstand all fluctuations in weather from extreme heat to the freezing cold.
Our geo-membranes provide an impermeable barrier against a wide range of solids and liquids. They also have excellent chemical and UV resistance, impermeability, and high yield and welded strengths.
We supply lagoon liners in a wide range of materials including Polyethylene, Polypropylene, Butyl rubber, Elvaloy and PVC.
The material selected depends upon the chemicals, liquids and solids they have to contain. We can advise you on the best material for your specific application.
The most commonly used membrane for slurry lagoons is a high-density polyethylene HDPE. This is due to its high strength and durability. This material provides an impermeable barrier against a wide range of solids and liquids. Designed to withstand the harsh effects of nature, is is chemical and UV resistant.
We can supply the membrane only or provide you with a complete 360-service. This includes the design, supply and complete construction of your lagoon.
From start to finish, we will work with you to advise on the best, most practical, economical and compliant solution. You can also rest assured that you are dealing with professionals – we are ISO 9001, ISO 14001, Achilles and Constructionline accredited.
Slurry is a fantastic resource for farmers. Made from a mixture of manure and water, it’s a natural and nutritious fertiliser that helps grass and other crops to thrive. Some dairy farmers spread slurry onto the land; others inject it directly into the soil. Its storage comes with many restrictions though.
Our Lagoon Liners provide a cost-effective and compliant means to contain agricultural waste on farms until it is ready to be applied to the land as a fertiliser. We supply liners in a wide range of materials including Polyethylene , Polypropylene, Butyl rubber, Elvaloy & PVC in water and sewage projects. The material selected depends upon the chemicals, liquids and solids they have to contain. We can advise you on the best material for your specific application.
Soil/sub-grade conditions should also be taken into consideration when choosing a membrane for a farm lagoon liner. The most commonly used membrane for slurry lagoons is a high-density polyethylene HDPE. This is due to its high strength and durability. This material provides an impermeable barrier against a wide range of solids and liquids. Designed to withstand the harsh effects of nature, is chemical and UV resistant.
Slurry is a fantastic resource for farmers. Made from a mixture of manure and water, it’s a natural and nutritious fertiliser that helps grass and other crops to thrive.
Its storage is governed by various legislation, such as the SSAFO regulations and OSR Wales. Within the legislation it is required that:
New or renovated slurry stores must have an expected life span of 20 years without maintenance for any part of the tank that sits underground
Your slurry lagoon has an impermeable barrier between the stored slurry and the surrounding soil and water table
Traditionally, farmers have used an earth-baked base as a liner due to its low cost. The difficulty with this option, however, is that it needs to be checked for permeability and once installed it can be awkward to repair.
In contrast, lagoon liners provide a cost effective and compliant means to contain agricultural waste on farms.
In summary, the benefits of using HDPE for farm slurry lagoons include:
The storage of slurry in slurry pits and lagoons is governed by various legislation, such as the SSAFO regulations, NVZ and OSR Wales. The legislation requires that new or renovated slurry stores must have an expected life span of 20 years without maintenance for any part of the tank that sits underground.
It is essential that your slurry lagoon has an impermeable barrier between the stored slurry and the surrounding soil and water table. This is to prevent seepage that could contaminate the area.
Traditionally, farmers have used an earth-baked base as a liner due to its low cost. The problem with this though is that it needs to be checked for permeability and once installed it can be awkward to repair. The cost of repairs can often exceed the cost of a geo-membrane installation.
We can supply the geo-membrane only or provide you with a complete package. This includes supply, design and also install your lagoon for you. Our installation team has over 25 years of experience in rural construction and are ISO:9001 and ISO:14001 compliant.
