BITUMINOUSGEOMEMBRANE

WATERPROOFING FOR CIVIL ENGINEERING STRUCTURES

For all types of terrain With its combination of a non-woven geotextile with a bituminous binder, COLETANCHE® provides a high mechanical resistance. With no requirement for an additional site-applied puncture-resistant geotextile, it is capable of withstanding highly adverse conditions and can be covered with a wide range of materials: hot mix asphalt, concrete, rip-raps, gravel, etc. It is highly resistant to ageing and can be used with or without protection. Due to its fl exibility, COLETANCHE® is suitable for use on all types of terrain.

A growing success Developed forty years ago, the COLETANCHE® familly range of bituminous geomembranes has proved its durability over time and its suitability for use on all soil types. To date, more than 14,000,000 m² or 150,000,000 ft² of COLETANCHE® have been lain worldwide.

COLETANCHE® is compatible with most materials and can therefore be laid on the majority of soil types without any kind of protection allowing exposure to UV if required.

EASY TO INSTALL✔ Signifi cant width of 5 m or 16.4 ft minimal✔ Installation possible in extreme weather conditions (rainfall, wind, cold temperatures down to -40 °C

or -40 °F)✔ High surface mass allowing installation in strong wind conditions

RESISTANCE✔ Physical durability of more than 40 years ✔ Resistant to UV rays✔ High resistance to puncture and tearing✔ Capacity to be covered by a wide range of materials: vegetation, asphalt, macadam

or poured concrete✔ Friction angle up to 34° greater than any other geomembrane. ✔ Remarkable fl exibility and dimensional stability thereby guaranteeing permanent contact with

the substrate✔ Resistance against chemical products, biological agents and oxidation

EASY AND ECONOMICAL MAINTENANCE✔ Easy to weld or bond with concrete and other penetrations in the open and under water

FOR ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

Colmar, France NNM Codelco Teniente, Chile

Solid waste storageUsed as a liner to control leachate and protect groundwater and used as a cover to prevent rain water infi ltration into the waste.

✔ Domestic waste✔ Mining waste

✔ Industrial waste✔ Green waste

Toromocho, Peru Estrée Mons, France

✔ Tailings ✔ Waste water

Liquid waste storageUsed to line leachate and waste water retention ponds due to its resistance to biological and chemical aggression.

COLETANCHE® protects the environment from pollution and

helps preserve water resources and soil quality for future generations in conditions that remain compatible

with today’s industrial, domestic and mining activities.

COLETANCHE® can be widely used in industry and mining

applications such as:in ponds used for storage, leaching

and lagooning of various liquid and solid wastes, on platforms for bottom ash ageing and compost

of green waste.

Crawford, NE, USA

COLETANCHE® FOR TRANSPORTATIONRailroads To stabilize railway embankments and pro-tect the ballast.

Roads and airportsTo protect groundwater and rivers, waterproof ditches and line storm water collection ponds.

COLETANCHE® provides optimal protection against seasonal,

accidental and chronic pollution and is also well-suited to minimise the

impact of road construction projects in ecologically sensitive areas.

Biogas barriersTo stop undesirable gas fl ows from migrating through the fl oor into residential or commercial buildings built on or near former oil fi eld, landfi ll, or industrial facilities. Can be combined with passive or active extraction systems.
