Basic info

Canal3®

Canal3® is a geosynthetic membrane geocomposite, offering an easy, reliable and cost-effective canal lining solution.

Canal3® is manufactured using varying weights and types of nonwoven materials that are fully adhered to a polyethylene liner. Canal3® is normally supplied in widths of 5.2 m and 7.6 m and roll lengths up to 91.4 m. Special roll sizes can also be produced to minimize waste on large projects.   

Canal3® is a lining solution for irrigation canals and other water containment applications. The top and bottom layers of the nonwovens not only provide increased puncture protection, but also increased interface friction.   Canal3® is neither affected by changing temperatures or frost which typically cause cracks in concrete lining solutions or by animals which often cause damage to membrane liners. This innovative canal liner can be installed in exposed or buried applications. Sprayed concrete can also be applied onto Canal3® for additional protection from vandalism and ultraviolet light.                     

Typical application:

  • Canal lining
  • Ponds
  • Landfill cover liners
  • All water containment applications

Properties

  • Flexible lining solution offering improved reliability by protective nonwoven layers
  • No additional excavation required  for a protective sand bedding
  • No installation of additional nonwoven layers for puncture protection, hence faster installation
  • Inert to biological degradation and naturally encountered chemicals, alkalies, and acids
