The idea was as simple as it was ingenious: Create a bond between concrete – an extremely solid structural material but with poor chemical properties – and plastic – a material with high chemical resistance values but not very good static properties.
BEKAPLAST LINING 400™ is a polyethylene plastic with high density (HDPE). One side of the plastic sheeting is provided with conical anchoring knobs that create a positive bond with the concrete. This type of bond between plastic and concrete assures excellent resistance to temperature-induced deformations.
- Mechanical bond between concrete and plastic lining
- Excellent resistance to corrosion and chemicals
- Highly impact resistance and resistant to mechanical loads, can be welded gas and watertight
- Bridges cracks in the concrete
- Smooth, anti-adhesive inner surface with little friction, prevents incrustations
- Physiologically tolerable lining material, thus suitable for use with drinking water
- Can be tested repeatedly for gas and water tightness, easy to repair
- Easy to handle, simple to install
