XR®-PW is the material preferred by engineers and utility owners for the containment of potable water. The broad range of chemical resistance and flexible nature of potable water geomembranes make it the ideal material for floating cover construction.
XR-PW Applications
The high-strength, UV-resistant membrane is NSF 61 approved for potable water contact and is used for a variety of applications, including floating covers, floating baffles, potable water, and more.
Floating Covers
XR-PW provides superior seam strength under constant loading and temperature fluctuation and is essential to personnel who walk on floating covers.
Floating Baffles
XR-3® PW baffles are widely used in raw and finished water tanks at water treatment plants. Utilizing the tough polyester base fabric, the XR-PW has the highest tensile strength of any potable water baffle material.
Potable Water
The XR-5® 8142 membrane was used to line and cover a potable water reservoir in Erie, Pennsylvania, and the XR-3 PW and XR-5 PW fabrics were installed as potable water tank liners at a 35-acre raw water reservoir at the Franklin Water Treatment Plant in Tennessee.
Improve Water Quality With Potable Water Reservoir Covers
XR-PW potable water tank lining retains its flexibility and performs better than any other membrane in the world.
