AGRU has just announced an exciting, first-in-class product called CleanSeam
AGRU has just announced an exciting, first-in-class product called CleanSeam, an integrated geosynthetic release film that mitigates the risk of particle buildup on the weld edges of geomembrane liner by eliminating exposure to field conditions. The product is ensuring cleaner welds, which improves the long-term performance of geosynthetic installations. Linked below is the release, a first-look video, and our flyer.
