ROWAD HDPE DOUBLE SMOOTH BLACK (HDS) CE:
ROWAD HDPE Geomembranes are produced from prime quality, high molecular weight resins and are specially
designed for most containment and environmental protection applications. The finished product has exceptional
mechanical and chemical resistance properties, is highly durable with excellent aging, UV resistance and Environmental
Stress Crack Resistance properties making it very suitable for most exposed applications. ROWAD Geomembranes are
produced with virgin resins and DO NOT contains any fillers, foreign additives or plasticizing agents.
The ROWAD Geomembrane specification shown below meets or exceeds customer specifications.

NOTES:
1: Carbon black Dispersion only applies to near spherical agglomerates. ≥9 of 10 views in Category 1 or 2 & ≤1 view in Category 3.
2: Testing frequencies are rounded the nearest full roll.
3: Roll lengths & widths have a tolerance of ±1%.
4: NCTL/OIT Results for Smooth and Textured materials (BF) are taken from SMOOTH Section/Selvedge of the Role & All 3rd Party Tests
Must be taken from this section only, however for all ETEX the OIT test can be taken anywhere on the Sheet.
5. Where offered, Conductive layers will be complete across the bottom of each roll. (Conductive Sheets will BF only).
6. For reference; BF= Blown Film, FD= Flat Die.
7. Where offered single Textured rolls, will be located on the upper face Unless otherwise agreed.
8. The minimum average thickness value is equal Nominal Thickness – 5%.
