EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) pond liner with a density of 900 grams per square metre is a robust, highly flexible synthetic rubber material, ideal for lining ponds, water features, and various aquatic installations. Below are its main features and advantages:
Key Features of EPDM Pond Liner:
Highly Flexible & Adaptable – Easily moulds to complex shapes, curves, and contours of ponds.
Exceptional Durability – Service life ranges from 20 to 50 years with proper maintenance.
UV & Ozone Resistant – Resists degradation from long-term sun exposure.
Safe for Aquatic Life – Non-toxic and free from substances harmful to fish and plants.
Puncture & Tear Resistant – Stands up well to small tears and ground shifts.
Resilient in All Temperatures – Performs reliably in both hot and freezing conditions without cracking or becoming brittle.
Simple to Repair – Minor damage can be easily patched without full liner replacement.
Benefits Compared to Other Pond Liners:
Versus PVC: Greater flexibility, extended lifespan, and contains no plasticisers that break down over time.
Versus HDPE & RPE: More pliable and easier to install in irregular shapes, though slightly heavier.
Typical Applications:
Garden ponds
Koi ponds
Wildlife habitats
Water features and fountains
Reservoirs and retention areas
Installation Advice:
Install Underlay: Shields the liner from sharp debris and roots.
Correctly Overlap Seams: Use EPDM seam tape and adhesive when joining sheets.
Ensure Adequate Slope: Prevents stagnant water and aids proper drainage.
