Polyurea Geotextile Liner System

Secondary containment systems must withstand chemical exposure, ground movement, and puncture risks while maintaining environmental compliance. American Coating Technologies installs a high-performance polyurea geotextile liner system engineered to deliver durable, flexible protection across a wide range of containment environments.

Installation begins with the placement of a 16-oz geotextile fabric over the existing containment surface, including dirt, clay, stone, claymax, asphalt, or concrete. This reinforcement layer enhances tensile strength while creating a stable substrate for the polyurea membrane.

The geotextile layer increases puncture resistance and structural stability. We then spray an initial 30 mil layer of proprietary polyurea, allowing the material to penetrate and bond with the fabric fibers. A second 40 mil application is immediately applied, forming a seamless membrane with a textured, non-slip surface.

The result is a flexible, monolithic containment barrier that resists chemical exposure, substrate movement, and mechanical damage.

In the event of accidental damage, the liner can be repaired quickly — often in under a minute — restoring containment integrity without extensive downtime.


Technical Data — 100% Pure Polyurea

  • Shore D Hardness: 45
  • Tensile Strength: 1,850 PSI
  • Tear Strength: 375 PSI
  • Elongation: 600%
  • Permeability: 0.05
  • Gasoline Permeability: No liquid loss after 3-day exposure

The combination of geotextile reinforcement and pure polyurea creates a containment liner that delivers exceptional flexibility, strength, and chemical resistance.

This system is ideal for:

  • Petroleum secondary containment
  • Fuel loading and transfer areas
  • Chemical containment systems
  • Wastewater containment
  • Water retention ponds
  • Vapor barriers
  • Landfills and environmental protection zones
