1. HDPE Pond Liners
High-Density Polyethylene Pond liners, also known as HDPE liners, are the best liners in today’s markets. This eco-friendly pond liner is made of single polymer polyethylene that makes them environmentally friendly. Apart from this, these liners are highly durable, offering higher tenacity and resistance than other pond liners. The HDPE liners EMMBI offers are made using PROTEX and Habitech technology, making them resistant to UV rays, Ozone and oxidation at the surface that prevents chemical reactions on the surface of the liners. The liners also come with a full warranty of 5 years. These liners are safe and well suited for fish ponds.
2. PVC Liners
Polyvinyl Chloride Liners (PVC) is flexible and inexpensive. They are not heavy like EPDM liners and are more resistant to punctures. However, these liners come with several disadvantages. They do not offer UV rays protection, so the portion of the liners exposed to the sun gets damaged quickly. They are also prone to cracking under extreme weather conditions, so they need to be covered with at least a foot of soil as the cracking can allow water to leak and enter the surrounding soil. The liners at times contain harmful chemicals such as arsenic as a result of the manufacturing process. This can be highly toxic to the fish.
3. EPDM Liners
Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM) is a standard flexible pond liner it is inexpensive and flexible. It is a rubber-like material that folds easily around corners, helping you create unique pond shapes. However, it is a relatively heavier material and offers low resistance to punctures compared to other liners. Ponds lined with this material typically require an underlay.
4. Rubber Liners
Butyl Rubber pond liners offer higher puncture resistance than EPDM liners and tend to be less expensive than HDPE liners. Butyl rubber does not stretch well and must be welded with additional sheets to fit custom pond shapes. The liners typically are available only in basic shapes, which is another drawback.
