Enabling Safe Containment and Process Efficiency in Industrial Operations
India’s industrial growth depends on materials that can withstand chemical exposure, high pressure, and environmental hazards. Geomembranes provide critical containment and protection in sectors such as mining, chemical processing, manufacturing, and energy. At AIGMA, we support geomembrane manufacturers and industry stakeholders by promoting the use of high-quality, BIS-compliant liners for secure, compliant, and efficient industrial applications.
Why Geomembranes Matter in Industrial Use
Liquid Storage Containment
Geomembranes are used to line storage pits, neutralization tanks, and chemical warehouses to prevent leaks and spills that could damage the environment or infrastructure.
Mining Leach Pads & Tailings
In mining, geomembranes are used for lining leach pads, tailings ponds, and slurry containment areas, offering protection against seepage and contaminants.
Wastewater Treatment
Effluent treatment plants use geomembranes in their clarifiers, lagoons, and holding ponds to safely contain and isolate wastewater during treatment and discharge.
Ash Ponds & Solid Waste Containment
In thermal power plants, geomembranes are used to line ash ponds and industrial solid waste sites, preventing leachate seepage and environmental damage.
Benefits for Industrial Containment Projects
Chemical Resistance
Withstands exposure to corrosive industrial fluids, acids, and chemicals without degrading.
Environmental Safety
Prevents leaks and spills from contaminating land, water bodies, or surrounding ecosystems.
Long-Term Performance
Durable under high pressure, temperature, and continuous industrial stress.
Regulatory Compliance
Supports adherence to safety, pollution control, and hazardous waste handling standards.
Operational Efficiency
Reduces downtime, leakage, and maintenance in containment and treatment systems.
Multi-Sector Versatility
Used across mining, petrochemical, fertilizer, steel, paper, and heavy manufacturing sectors.
AIGMA’s Role in Industrial Geomembrane Use
AIGMA works closely with industry bodies, process consultants, and manufacturers to promote safe and efficient use of geomembranes in industrial settings. We help develop standards, support testing protocols, and ensure manufacturers’ products meet industrial safety and environmental compliance benchmarks.
We advocate for BIS-compliant geomembrane use in public and private industrial tenders, while supporting capacity-building among EPC contractors, plant engineers, and technical consultants. Our mission is to ensure every industrial containment project uses reliable, high-quality materials that protect both operations and the environment.
