The winding river channel flows with water, and the sounds from the pond are still so pleasant. Have you ever wondered what kind of waterproof material is used in river channels, ponds, and artificial lakes? Of course, it's the EPDM geomembrane—EPDM artificial lake waterproof seepage membrane waterproof material.

Why is seepage and waterproofing treatment necessary for ponds, reservoirs, artificial lakes, and river channels?

1. With the continuous extraction of groundwater, the water table is getting lower and lower, making it impossible to maintain a constant water level in artificial lakes.

2. Most water systems are excavated on backfilled soil, which is soft, has high settlement rates, and is geologically unstable.

3. Rising environmental temperatures, uneven rainfall distribution, longer dry seasons, and increased evaporation.

4. To ensure long-term water quality stability and prevent contamination from surrounding rainwater and domestic sewage infiltration.

5. To prevent water resource wastage and make full use of water sources for future water storage and irrigation of surrounding plants.

6. To avoid adverse effects on the foundations of surrounding buildings.

7. As living standards improve, people have higher expectations for their living environment, and water is the closest element to nature.

8. To maintain a constant water level and achieve the desired landscape effect.

9. To better meet the needs of ecological sponge city construction.

Traditional Methods of Reservoir Seepage Prevention

In projects involving ponds, reservoirs, artificial lakes, and river channels, the use of flexible geomembranes has only become popular in recent years. In such projects, Yuecheng EPDM synthetic rubber geomembrane materials offer significantly better seepage prevention and durability compared to traditional reinforced concrete, stone masonry, and coating methods. They are also more flexible, making them an excellent waterproof seepage material. Reinforced concrete has long construction cycles, high costs, and relatively poor seepage prevention. In contrast, geomembranes have short construction cycles, are easy to install, require minimal maintenance, have low investment costs, and provide excellent environmental seepage prevention, fully meeting the needs of landscape lakes. Therefore, with the growing demand in the landscape water feature market, the application of geomembranes has seen a significant increase.

Main Features of Yuecheng EPDM Synthetic Rubber Geomembrane Waterproofing Roll

● Excellent physical and chemical properties, high strength, and high elongation (elongation rate over 450%).

● Outstanding aging resistance (theoretical service life derived from laboratory-simulated aging tests exceeds 50 years).

● Good low-temperature flexibility (can be applied at temperatures as low as -45°C while ensuring construction quality).

● Strong dimensional stability.

● Resistance to moisture condensation.

Advantages of the Yuecheng EPDM Synthetic Rubber Geomembrane Waterproofing Roll System

● Comprehensive auxiliary materials and optimized design, working together with the main material to form a complete product system, providing solutions for almost all nodes in artificial water body seepage prevention design.

● The rolls are manufactured in wide widths, with specifications of 20m width and 50m length, 1000 square meters per roll, significantly reducing construction workload, effectively lowering leakage risks, improving construction speed, and simplifying construction difficulty.

● A strong business and technical team provides application solutions, construction node diagram design, economic calculations, on-site technical support, and after-sales services.

● Environmentally friendly and non-toxic. Cold-adhesive application ensures safety and convenience. The use of overlapping strips greatly reduces the release of various emissions and volatile organic compounds into the air. The material itself is inert and recyclable.

● Reduces usage costs. The service life far exceeds that of other materials, offering a one-time investment with long-term benefits. Once installed, it requires minimal maintenance unless damaged.
