HDPE pond membrane liner is the low permeability synthetic membrane liners or barriers that are used with any geotechnical engineering – related material as an integral part of a man -made project, structure, or system. Zambia is a landlocked country located in central Africa. Moreover, the economic structure is relatively simple, with mining, agriculture and tourism as the three pillar industries. Copper mine is the most important mineral in Zambia. It is one of the countries with the richest copper reserves in the world. The reserves exceed 1.4 billion tons, accounting for about 6% of the world’s total reserves. It is known as the “country of copper mines”.
Issue
With the development of the global economy, more and more companies invest in copper mining enterprises in Zambia. But at the same time, the protection of the environment is also valued by the local government, so the anti-seepage treatment of tailings is something that every copper mining company needs to actively face. Our client built a new copper ore processing plant in Zambia, and the tailings anti-seepage project also had to be arranged accordingly. Customers come to us and want us to provide a complete construction material plan. After discussion and the design, in waterproofing material part, We provide customers with design suggestions of geomembrane, geosynthitec Clay Liners geonet, geotextile system.
Solution
As the most vital part in tailing, HDPE pond membrane liner plays the most important role and our team suggested double layer waterproofing design. HDPE pond membrane liner has excellent acid and alkali resistance and can well isolate pollutants from penetrating into the ground. The Geosynthitec Clay Liners,as the spare alternative,when geomembrane is leak under the outside pressure or destroy, the GCL can swell automatically and fix the hole. The combination of the two materials can achieve a more ideal anti-seepage effect.
Customers have high requirements for geomembrane liner product quality. We sent samples to customers for testing, and the test results met customer requirements. During the production process, a third-party inspection company was required to enter the factory to check the product quality, and finally all products were approved by the projects

Benefits
Today, HDPE pond membrane liner has been widely used in various engineering fields. Its good anti-seepage performance and excellent long-lasting performance can protect groundwater resources from pollution to the greatest extent.
- HDPE geomembrane can allow mining companies to get great benefits in many harsh climates and complex harsh environments
- HDPE geomembrane also reduces the damage to the surrounding environment. Such mining needs to work in complex environments, so high-quality HDPE geomembrane must be used.
- HDPE geomembrane has excellent chemical resistance and durability and can resist most chemical compounds, thus ensuring high-quality anti-seepage engineering in the mining industry.
- Due to the excellent puncture resistance of the HDPE geomembrane material itself, it can resist the damage of fine ores in the heap leach pond or tank.
