G
undle Geosynthetics is proud to be a Patron Member of the Institute of Waste Management of Southern Africa and play a role in providing solutions for the industr y. Gundle needs no introduction to the industr y as one of the major lining contractors in Africa – having lined over 23 million m2 of HDPE geomembrane and 16 million m2 of other geosynthetics liners (geotextile, leakdrain composites, geosynthetic clay liners, geocells, etc.) and completing over 3 500 projects, we are covering new ground. Gundle supplies and install to various applications, such as: landfills (including H:H facilities), tailing dams, process ponds, pollution control dams, ash dams, canals, bund areas, wastewater treatment ponds, evaporation and regulation ponds, and agriculture dams, to name a few.
Gundle Geosynthetics has a strong footprint in Southern Africa, as well as in Central, Eastern and Western Africa. It is impor tant to consider a reputable lining contractor, as there are so many businesses out there today that do not operate according to standards. Gundle Geosynthetics is an ISO 9001:2015 company with a quality-driven approach. We have launched our electronic QA/QC, which we have been developing over the past year and gives the client, engineers and our regulator peace of mind and confidence that facilities have been lined in accordance with SANS 10409:2020 specifications, with project-specific CQA. We are excited to play our par t in building a better future for society and protecting our environment for generations to come. HDPE is HOPE to our environment, as it is the barrier that keeps waste, leachate and chemicals out of our soil and water.
