SAFE SURFACE
Grip-Guard Safety Liner provides a skid-resistant surface that protects both workers and worksites. Grip-Guard improves worksite safety by reducing the risk for employee slips, trips, and falls, while protecting the environment.
HIGH COEFFICIENT OF FRICTION
Grip-Guard Safety Liners increase the worksite coefficient of friction, creating a safer working surface for workers. This increased friction significantly reduces slippage and allows for design flexibility and greater capacity.
MATERIAL
Grip-Guard Safety Liner is made from high quality high density polyethylene resins. Added to these resins are, carbon black, antioxidants and UV stabilizers to assure long performance and UV resistance even in exposed conditions. The absence of leachable additives and fillers, allows Grip-Guard to maintain excellent resistance to brittleness that may occur over time.
CHEMICAL RESISTANCE
The chemical resistance of Grip-Guard is the best of any available geomembranes. Grip-Guard is chemically resistant to a wide variety of chemicals including aromatic and halogenated hydrocarbons. Grip-Guard has been used successfully for years as primary and secondary landfill liners, secondary containment and mining heap leach pads.
STRESS CRACK RESISTANT
Grip-Guard is manufactured from resins specially designed to provide outstanding resistance to stress cracking. The appendix to ASTM D 5397, Single Point Notched Constant Tensile Load, is the test method most commonly specified for determination of stress crack resistance. GRI GM 13 requires a minimum of 300 hours to failure. Grip-Guard requires that every lot of resin used to manufacture Grip-Guard Safety Liner has a minimum of 1,000 hours.
BENEFITS OF A ROUGHENED SURFACE
Perhaps the most important attribute Grip-Guard offers is the ability to improve geosynthetic profile stability which ultimately maximizes the available volume that can be contained by the liner. The ability to line steeper slopes allows increases in design capacity providing cost savings.
