Dam Liners in Kenya

Dam Liners are waterproof geomembrane sheets that prevent water loss in dams or reservoirs.  The dam liner material has high tensile strength to withstand pressure and impact of high water volume. Due to UV resistance, it can work under intense cold or hot sunlight.

Dam Liner Thickness ( Sizes)

Dam Liners are available in different sizes according to thickness (gauge). The common sizes include:

• 3 mm (300 microns)
• 5 mm (500 microns)
• 75 mm (750 microns)
• 1 mm (1000 microns)

Why Dam Liners are Essential in Kenya

Water access for farming or domestic needs is a challenge in most arid and semi-arid areas in Kenya. Dam Liners collect water for irrigation or domestic use during dry seasons. You can use the material on a pond or water pan to store rainwater or pumped water.

Benefits of Using Dam Liners

• Dam Liners are Economical: cheap compared to plastic water tanks.
• Highly efficient: if properly installed, dam liners can retain water for a long time.
• Easy to Install : dam liners are easier to install and use.
• Can be repaired easily: if damaged, the material can be repaired through hot welding.
• Wide range of uses from water storage, sewage containment or mining applications.

How to Choose the Right Dam Liner

• Intended application – for heavy duty applications, you need a high thickness liner e.g sewage waster handling requires 1 mm liner.
• Type of soil – the soil structure of your region determines which dam liner thickness to use.
• UV treatment – every dam liner needs to be UV treated to withstand degradation
• Budget – the amount you are willing to spend is a primary factor that decided which liner you can buy.

Applications of Dam Liners in Kenya

Water Storage for Irrigation

Dam liners are widely used to store water for use in irrigation farming. This is especially critical in regions where rainfall is inconsistent.

Fish Farming

Aquaculture is growing rapidly in Kenya, and dam liners play a crucial role in maintaining water levels and quality in fish ponds.

Industrial Use

Industries also use dam liners for wastewater storage and management, ensuring environmental compliance.

Concrete Tank Lining

Old concrete and underground tanks are nowadays reinforced with dam liners to prevent water loss. Because concrete often cracks with time, the liner acts as secure barrier to keep water in the tank.

Industrial Mining

To hold mineral or soil containing special raw materials in mining sites. Also applicable as safety mats.
